noroom Posted January 28, 2007 Share Posted January 28, 2007 in Vista, the balloon popups look like the ones from XP. However, at some point in the longhorn beta's, they actually looked like this: Actually, that is not a balloon popup. It's a Messenger popup. Different things. But still, this is looking nice!

AndreasV Posted January 28, 2007 Author Share Posted January 28, 2007 Thanks for the x64 compile offer, but I'm already downloading x64 platformsdk files now - it's probably better, because I'm currently recompiling a lot :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
backdrifter Posted January 28, 2007 Share Posted January 28, 2007 it looks really great, but as somebody else stated the consept video shows a messenger popup. Some details differ therefore, for instance your balloons don't indicate the owner of the message like standard balloons do. Hope you keep working on it though, it just looks beatiful.

tempnegro Posted January 28, 2007 Share Posted January 28, 2007 can you make this a long term project thats analogous to growl for mac? give those mac fanboys a run for their money yes!?!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Menge Posted January 28, 2007 Share Posted January 28, 2007 oooh! nice going there, Ave! how about implementing the vaporware universal notification framework that Longhorn promised and Vista never got? ;) (yes this is another vote for implementing something akin to Growl in Windows :p) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Denis W. Veteran Posted January 28, 2007 Veteran Share Posted January 28, 2007 Very nice! It's still a bit too small and occasionally the icon on the left spills out of the toast. Also if the application is still running and the user logs off, Explorer crashes with a 0x10001010 error. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AndreasV Posted January 28, 2007 Author Share Posted January 28, 2007 http://mpj.tomaatnet.nl/glasstoast.zip Hopefully fixed all XP bugs thanks to menge. Only thing not working for XP users are glasstoast's own popup ballloons under xp. Just find a normal popup balloon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AndreasV Posted January 29, 2007 Author Share Posted January 29, 2007 The API is simple. Use the normal balloon notification built into windows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
