Traytask & Systray Thread last updated on 2004-03-03 07:24:58

In my theme, I use:

traytasks-1.7 wich turns task into tray icons, and systray2-2.0.2 to display the tray.

My problem: I want icons to flash on update, so I know when a task has updated, a contact answered, etc...

In the systray doc, there's a mention about *SystrayFlash
Wich

" Set icons to flash on update. Set max_flashes to 0 to have the icon flash until clicked."
Syntax:
*SystrayFlash "classname" "title [optional]" max_flashes

But how am I supposed to use that? First time I make a theme and first time I customize Litestep so please bear with me. If I understand well, adding this line to my theme.rc should be enough. But....What the "classname" should be? Can anyone give me an example of what my line should be?

Thanks in advance.

Call !SystrayIconInfo and taka a look into litestep.log...
U'll get Window Caption, Classname and some more info about icon...
After that add *SystrayFlash line with "classname" u got on previous step...

Thank you.
Ok but isn't there a way to have all windows flash on update instead of adding all programs one by one? Isn't there a wildcard, aka "*"?
