But still I can see sand-timer icon when that ticker is showing up~. What should I do.., :( Need your help, but still thanks! Hi~ It’s me again~
I’ve solved the problem I told you,
But the door is still closed.. :(

If I seperate main application into two threads, which the first thread is for Ticker itself and the other one is for the event that includs [FOR] Statements I thought It would work, I could give an mouse over event on it.

But still I can see sand-timer icon when that ticker is showing up~.

What should I do.., :(
Need your help, but still thanks!

The trick is to handle the ticker in a separate thread which is created when Timer's Tick event is called. This would mean that the main thread is free to handle other calls while the other thread you created will keep the ticker going. Thanks,

My question before was about this, I'm programing for my server management, see below 1. Program is showing on tray with context menu : - DB Replication Monitoring Start - DB Replication Monitoring Stop 2. When monitoring start, Timer(Windows.Forms.Timer) starts and check DB status in every 60 seconds 3. When Something is wrong, Notify status to the administrator which is me~ using your program! in every 60 seconds.(also using another timer, every 60 seconds it shows up and down) But the problem is that while this Notification Ticker is showing up I can't click on my context menuitem. I think it's because of [For] statements. Can you gimme any idea? I'm still working on it..... :( Hello, thanks for great work!
My question before was about this,
I’m programing for my server management,
see below

1. Program is showing on tray with context menu :
– DB Replication Monitoring Start
– DB Replication Monitoring Stop

3. When Something is wrong, Notify status to the administrator which is me~ using your program! in every 60 seconds.(also using another timer, every 60 seconds it shows up and down)

But the problem is that
while this Notification Ticker is showing up
I can’t click on my context menuitem.

I think it’s because of [For] statements. Can you gimme any idea? I’m still working on it….. :(
