Hi folks,

what I wanted to know is "how can i edit my system tray?".

I want to edit it because I would like to have a bluetooth icon in it so i can turn it on or off.

hope this is possible

You could try phm traylaunch?

You would need to know the path for the bluetooth control panel applet....im sure somebody could post it here

The Bluetooth control panel applet doesnt easily turn it off or on, I think Bram87 is looking for basically a toggle, with the Bluetooth icon in the tray, and Bram87..correct me if I am wrong

I am not familiar if the commmgr links to something else, or controls the bluetooth alone, but if it does it alone, I think you will need to find a toggle app, to stick in the tray launch, I was looking into this just a little while back, seen some crap for the today screen etc..but never really what I was looking for, I could have completely missed it also, Im sure someone else has more useful info on all of this than I do.

Ok I got it...
Then my last post here is useles to what are looking for because it takes you to the bluetooth settings, it is not a on/off switch ...

Naa, I wouldnt call it useless, Im sure there are plenty who didnt know that .zip existed, and might find it handy, not everyone knows the search button very well.

Also back on the topic, I think a toggle app is going to have to be made, unless somemone else can find one aleady wrote, also if someone cares to do a custom one, we wouldnt have to use traylaunch.

Thanks Hiimcliff

I installed batterystatus to check it out, but it shows a little box with like settings, on/off, and another which I forget.

Im really picky about stuff on my today screen, and just decided to ditch it, but it has made me curious as to how its controlling the bluetooth, it almost looks as though its working through the bluetooth cpl, and I almost think the bluetooth cpl .lnk in the files that Mablan posted could be defined to turn it on of off, for example the .lnk opens to "devices" but I know it could be set to open to "mode" and possibly even directly toggle it on/off, I dunno..its not really important to me, it just has me curious, and figured Id post about it, incase someone else knows better.
