How to create a task bar icon (Phoenix)
Keywords : Task bar icon.
Contents
Introduction :
Some applications are placed on a taskbar.
It is an area on a panel usually at the right bottom of the screen.
They are represented by a small icon.
They are specialized programs designed to do some specific task.
Common examples are a clock, sound mixer, language switcher.
They are also called applets.
In wxPython we have a TaskbarIcon class for creating such applets.
The constructor does not take any parameters.
wx.adv import TaskBarIcon as TaskBarIcon
Available methods |

Destroy() |
