VoiceAttack Hide/Unhide (from system tray) Profile
« on: January 26, 2017, 03:53:08 PM »
I like to keep VoiceAttack minimized to the Windows system tray, but this causes issues with being able to unhide (maximize) and rehide (minimize) VoiceAttack. The main intent of this profile is to deal with this problem. It leverages checking whether VoiceAttack "exists" (i.e., is allowed to minimize to tray) and then performs hiding/unhiding using programmed mouse moves and send-clicks. It's a work in progress, but it gets the job done.

You will need to set the mouse positioning yourself depending on your monitor resolution and desktop layout. You'll also need to make sure that when VoiceAttack is minimized to tray it is always in the same position on your tray. I have my PC set to show VoiceAttack on the tray, but you can certainly add a few mouse moves and clicks if you like to keep the VoiceAttack icon hidden in your tray. You will find the code that you need to change in the functions "Hide VoiceAttack via Minimize" and "Show VoiceAttack from Tray."

Please let me know if you encounter any bugs!

Enjoy!
