I want to hide the wrench button on the balloon tooltip
Does anyone know how? Is it possible to disable/remove the wrench button next to the close button on the balloon tooltip in the system tray that is being called from System.Windows.Forms.NotifyIcon?

Balloon Tooltip

Please help
Thanks in advance.

    Context....? What wrench from what tooltip? – Chris Laplante Oct 23 '12 at 18:50
  • What does this have to do with C#? What system tray? – Chris Forrence Oct 23 '12 at 18:52
  • It is an option to open windows notification window. I added a notifyicon to my windows form so that it would display a balloon tip in the system tray. This balloon tip has an option that looks like a monkey-wrench. I wish to remove it from my balloon tooltip. – dailyUnknown Oct 23 '12 at 18:56

    @SimpleCoder I think [this](http://i.imgur.com/xsFEi.png) is the one he's talking about. but I'm just guessing here. – Nasreddine Oct 23 '12 at 18:56
  • are you using the System.Windows.Forms.NotifyIcon ? then please add this to the question. not such a bad question btw – user287107 Oct 23 '12 at 19:00
  • but I guess there is no way, because it is handled by the explorer. perhaps changing the notification settings of the explorer will help, but then the wrench will disappear always – user287107 Oct 23 '12 at 19:00

Sorry, I do not think this is possible. The explorer process which is responsible for desktop icons and the task bar is responsible for controlling the notification area as well. You may use a different object than NotifyIcon to show notification icons. I'd recommend you to use DevComponents if you would like to see similar objects

Sorry about that,
I hope you find this helpful :)
