Okay, So I'm attempting to make a Simple Screenshot program and I need the program to show a BalloonToolTip when a screenshot is taken and when the program is set to run on start up. The code below show my entire program, there is no form, nor is there a designer. Just a program that runs from Program.cs, and its not a console application.
using System;
using System.Windows.Forms;
using System.Drawing;
using System.Drawing.Imaging;
using System.IO;
using System.Windows;
using FullscreenShot.Properties;
using GlobalHotKey;
using System.Windows.Input;
using System.Timers;
using System.Threading.Tasks;
using Microsoft.Win32;
namespace FullscreenShot
{
class Program
{
private static NotifyIcon notifyIcon;
private static HotKeyManager hotKeyManager;
/// <summary>
/// The main entry point for the application.
/// </summary>
[STAThread]
static void Main()
{
System.Windows.Forms.Application.EnableVisualStyles();
System.Windows.Forms.Application.SetCompatibleTextRenderingDefault(false);
// We need to dispose here, or the icon will not remove until the
// system tray is updated.
System.Windows.Forms.Application.ApplicationExit += delegate{ notifyIcon.Dispose(); };
CreateNotifyIcon();
System.Windows.Forms.Application.Run();
}
/// <summary>
/// Creates the icon that sits in the system tray.
/// </summary>
private static void CreateNotifyIcon()
{
notifyIcon = new NotifyIcon
{
Icon = Resources.AppIcon,
ContextMenu = GetContextMenu()
};
notifyIcon.Visible = true;
/*------------------------------------------------------------*/
hotKeyManager = new HotKeyManager();//Creates Hotkey manager from GlobalHotKey
var hotKey = hotKeyManager.Register(Key.F12, ModifierKeys.Control); // Sets Hotkey to Control + F12, ModifierKeys must be pressed first/
hotKeyManager.KeyPressed += HotKeyManagerPressed; //Creates void for "HotKeyManagerPressed"
void HotKeyManagerPressed(object sender, KeyPressedEventArgs e) //Checks to see if hotkey is pressed
{
if(e.HotKey.Key == Key.F12)
{
TakeFullScreenShotAsync();
BalloonTip();
// MessageBox.Show("Screenshot Taken");
}
}
}
/// <summary>
/// Creates BalloonTip to notify you that your Screenshot was taken.
/// </summary>
private static void BalloonTip()
{
notifyIcon.Visible = true;
notifyIcon.Icon = SystemIcons.Information;
notifyIcon.ShowBalloonTip(740, "Important From Screenshot", "Screenshot Taken", ToolTipIcon.Info);
}
private static void BalloonTip2()
{
notifyIcon.Visible = true;
notifyIcon.Icon = SystemIcons.Information;
notifyIcon.ShowBalloonTip(1, "Important From Screenshot", "Screenshot will now begin on startup", ToolTipIcon.Info);
}
///<summary>
///Creates the contextmenu for the Icon
///<summary>
private static ContextMenu GetContextMenu()
{
string myPath = System.AppDomain.CurrentDomain.BaseDirectory.ToString();
System.Diagnostics.Process prc = new System.Diagnostics.Process();
prc.StartInfo.FileName = myPath;
ContextMenu menu = new ContextMenu();
menu.MenuItems.Add("Take Screenshot (Ctrl+F12)", delegate { TakeFullScreenShotAsync(); });
menu.MenuItems.Add("Open Folder", delegate { prc.Start(); });
menu.MenuItems.Add("Exit", delegate { System.Windows.Forms.Application.Exit(); });
menu.MenuItems.Add("Run On Startup", delegate { RunOnStartup(); });
return menu;
}
/// <summary>
/// Simple function that finds Registry and adds the Application to the startup
/// </summary>
private static void RunOnStartup()
{
RegistryKey reg = Registry.CurrentUser.OpenSubKey("SOFTWARE\\Microsoft\\Windows\\CurrentVersion\\Run", true);
reg.SetValue("MyApp", Application.ExecutablePath.ToString());
BalloonTip2();
MessageBox.Show("The Program will now start on startup");
}
/// <summary>
/// Gets points for the screen uses those points to build a bitmap of the screen and saves it.
/// </summary>
private static async void TakeFullScreenShotAsync()
{
await Task.Delay(750);//Allows task to be waited on for .75ths of a second. Time In ms.
int width = Screen.PrimaryScreen.Bounds.Width;
int height = Screen.PrimaryScreen.Bounds.Height;
using (Bitmap screenshot = new Bitmap(width, height, PixelFormat.Format32bppArgb))
{
using (Graphics graphics = Graphics.FromImage(screenshot))
{
System.Drawing.Point origin = new System.Drawing.Point(0, 0);
System.Drawing.Size screenSize = Screen.PrimaryScreen.Bounds.Size;
//Copy Entire screen to entire bitmap.
graphics.CopyFromScreen(origin, origin, screenSize);
}
//Check to see if the file exists, if it does, append.
int append = 1;
while (File.Exists($"Screenshot{append}.jpg"))
append++;
string fileName = $"Screenshot{append}.jpg";
screenshot.Save(fileName, ImageFormat.Jpeg);
}
}
}
}
Now you may not need all of that but I want to make sure i didn't mess anything up in the process, and yes my Resources are being found and the Icon is set, I'm just not understanding why this isn't working.
