how to send a message to the windows notification center?

[JHPJHP]

Hi ChrisR,

Thanks again for testing the examples.

Added the example I spoke about here, and included a simple Image2Base64 script.
In addition, I made a small change to the SetExecutionPolicy Procedure, adding -Scope CurrentUser; updated all examples.

JHPJHP, Thanks for your example. Is it possible to show the toast just in the center?

Hi A.D.

Yes; updated Windows Services & Other Stuff\Other_Stuff\PowerShell\ToastNotification\ToastNotification_2.pb

Replace:

Code: Select all

[Windows.UI.Notifications.ToastNotificationManager]::CreateToastNotifier("PureBasic").Show($xmlToast)

With:

Code: Select all

$toast = [Windows.UI.Notifications.ToastNotification]::new($xmlToast)
$toast.Tag = "PureBasic"
$toast.Group = "PureBasic"
$toast.ExpirationTime = [DateTimeOffset]::Now.AddMinutes(5)
$toast.SuppressPopup = $true

[Windows.UI.Notifications.ToastNotificationManager]::CreateToastNotifier("PureBasic").Show($toast)

very nice , didn't know what Powershell can do. I was thinking of writing a DLL in C# for PureBasic instead of using the powershell but the truth is, i'm not able to write in C# (yeah, i'm getting old!). Thanks!

Is there no winapi command to trigger a windows notification? I don't want to enable scripting or use powershell. There has to be a better way of doing this?
