Tray Icon Object

[Jarzka]

Simple problem:
MMF's exe shows the tray icon correctly in the right down but exe doesn't?

Could you expand on this a little? What do you mean exactly? Screenshots?

Well look at the right bottom of you screen. You see some icons there, right? Now when I start MMF2, use Tray Icon and run my application the application's icon is correctly there right bottom with other icons.

Then I build exe and run it. The icon is in the right place but it's invisible. I can't see it but I can click it and maximize the window again.

Basically when you build the exe, the tray icon's icon is blank, but when you preview it inside MMF it shows as it should.

I can confirm this btw. Would be neat with a solution.

Ah now, im following... (and yes I know what the tray icons are thanks!) You have to set the icon by a condition in the event editor.. So say, on Start of Frame -> set icon "Apppath$+appdirectory$+myicon.ico". In other words, point it to your icon file.

I set Appdrive$+Appdir$+"icon.ico" to the icon but it's still blank.

Erm, ok, is it your icon? Try using a file object in your app and at the start of the frame make it come up with a file selector. Then after that event, set the icon to the return path of the file object. When it runs select the icon file you are trying to use. If that doesn't work try using a different icon file, download one off the net or something.
