Dear Sean, 
This is very useful. Thanks.
When we use AHK command Process, Close to teminate a Process, its Tray Icon gets orphaned and can be cleared from TNA (only) by hovering the mouse over it.
It would be nice & useful if you could wrap up a function: ProcessClose() that deletes the tray icon before terminating the process.
PS: Self-Teminating script that leaves it Icon orphaned.
| Code: | | Process, Close, % DllCall("GetCurrentProcessId") |

It's already possible. There is one problem, though.
How will you specify the process to be terminated?
I'm currently using process names to pick up the tray icons, TrayIcons("app.exe").
The problem with it is that it'll pick up all running processes corresponding to app.exe. |

what about using PID when there's multiple instances of app.exe?
i often run multiple instances of some progs that have identical titles, so i use either ahk_id or PID to distinguish between them, and it works great |

I thought you would find a way.  |

Looks like there was a misunderstanding.
I was simply asking if a process name would be enough even with the limitation, as it indeed did for me, or there is your prefered way to do it if not enough.
Seems that the process name is not enough.
I edited the script as TrayIcons() accepts not only the ProcessName but also the ProcessID as the optional parameter.
After that you may add the following code before closing the process:
| Code: | sTrayIcons := TrayIcons(pid)
nOffset := 0
Loop
{
If !nOffset := RegExMatch(sTrayIcons, "(?<=idx: )\d+", idx, nOffset + 1)
Break
DeleteButton(idx)
}

Update: NEVER MIND. I see all lines. This is now super super awesome.
| Quote: | This is SO awesome. I have been looking so long for a way to grab tooltip text. One issue is that for multi-line tooltips, the function only returns the last line of the tooltip. Any way to show all tooltip lines?
Thanks! |

first you must get the pid of the process, using Process, Exist.

Assuming it has only one trayicon you may use this:
| Code: | RegExMatch(TrayIcons(pid), "(?<=idn: )\d+", idn)
MsgBox, % idn
|

Why didn't you ask about what you really wanted to do from the start if you're not going to figure it out yourself?
Anyway, the answer was already there two posts before your first post.
| Code: | sTrayIcons := TrayIcons(pid)
nOffset := 0
Loop
{
If Not nOffset := RegExMatch(sTrayIcons, "(?<=idn: )\d+", idn, nOffset + 1)
Break
HideTrayIcon(idn)
}

Umm, I'm sorry about that. The thing i want to do, is to hide specific tray icon, with pid i specified.
It doesn't work for me, what you wrote, it hides only tray icon of the script, or all tray icons. |

Then, don't use it, user/azure/Mousie. |

now isn't that being a bit extreme!
After all, he can still use it to hide only tray icon of the script, or all tray icons !  |
