does nobody know how to do this?

Dunno if I totally understand what you mean?
But if its to send a message to a window, you could use sendmessage_() or _sendMessage() I believe. This is a windows system call
more info here;

I think yo ask for the notifications panel on Windows 10 ? (Win +A)
Notifications on W10 taskbar (Balloon Tooltips or 'Toast notifications') can be added to notification panel after being closed.
(but I don't know how to)

yes, i mean the window 10 notification center on the right panel. Would be cool to have code for it!

Hi
Search the forum for System Tray Balloon by Michael Vogel (MV)

i'm looking for something like this https://github.com/deseven/pb-macos-notifications just for Windows 10! I think such toast notifications need to be declared as a Window 10 App to have access to the notification center.

Hi A.D.

Sent you a PM; original code can be found @ Windows Services & Other Stuff\Other_Stuff\PowerShell\ToastNotification\...

NOTE: Currently the code is to big to post as it uses base64 images.

For basic notifications RASHAD is correct (System Tray Balloon).
But I thought the image I posted made it clear that Toast Notifications are different, and offer another level of messaging.

See the following XML and Toast Notification below:

NB*: I copied and pasted the XML into my existing example and the results were identical.

Code: Select all

<toast scenario="reminder">
  <visual>
    <binding template="ToastGeneric">
      <text>Windows 10 Semiannual Update 1809</text>
      <text>Required by 5:00 PM, Fri, 1/25/19</text>
      <text>You can visit Software Center at any time to view more details or install updates before the required deadline.</text>
      <image placement="hero" src="https://picsum.photos/364/180?image=1043"/>
    </binding>
  </visual>
  <actions>
    <input id="snoozeTime" type="selection" title="Click Snooze to be reminded in:" defaultInput="15">
      <selection id="15" content="15 minutes"/>
      <selection id="60" content="1 hour"/>
      <selection id="240" content="4 hours"/>
      <selection id="480" content="8 hours"/>
    </input>
    <action activationType="system" arguments="snooze" hint-inputId="snoozeTime" content=""/>
    <action activationType="system" arguments="dismiss" content=""/>
  </actions>
</toast>

Oh, sorry, I didn't realise that image was an example toast notification. But yeah, you're right. Some notifications are more than just messages/balloon tips.

It would be nice if someone could give a small, complete and functional example ("Hello World")

For information, with other tools like AutoIt, a simple

Code: Select all

TrayTip("Information", "Hello World!.", 30, 17)

... is enough to display a toast on Windows 10 ("title", "message", timeout, icon)
(but does not keep it in the notification center)

This is one of the easiest ways to get the user's attention in a program.
The advantage is also that you can't validate it by mistake by pressing enter like a modal box (MessageRequester)

@JHPJHP
It didn't work the first time for me, Script execution is disabled here
But it worked fine after adding Set-executionpolicy unrestricted
It goes through Powershell but nice toast

Code: Select all

ProgramResult = RunProgram("powershell", "Set-executionpolicy unrestricted;" + #DQUOTE$ +   TemporaryDirectory + "_ToastNotification.ps1" + #DQUOTE$, #Null$, #PB_Program_Hide | #PB_Program_Open | #PB_Program_Read)

Hi ChrisR,

Thank you for reporting the problem.

There already are Procedures to handle the Execution Policy (see RestorePoint.pbi), but I didn't think they were needed here.
The examples have been updated to set and restore the original Execution Policy; I believe RemoteSigned should be enough.

Hi JHPJHP,
It's all good with script execution disabled by default here
