The ASTC component simplifies the process of adding system tray functions, system tray information, subclassing, and Balloon Tooltip features to various COM-based applications, including VB, VC++, C#, and VB.NET.
If you're looking for ways to easily enhance your VB, VC++, C#, VB.NET or other COM environment applications, look no further than the ASTC component. This powerful software allows developers to add four key functionalities to their applications with ease. These four functions are made up of Tray Icon ActiveX Control, Tray List ActiveX Control, Subclass ActiveX Control, and Balloon ActiveX Control.
The TrayIcon ActiveX Control is loaded with features that make it simple to add an icon to a systray. This tool allows you to show the icon in an animation, assign a tooltip, check the current state of the icon, and much more. Additionally, you can even assign a popup menu for a specific event which will be closed when the program loses focus.
With the TrayList ActiveX Control, developers are able to hide any specified icon from the system tray area and get all the information about the systray icons.
If you're looking to subclass any window, the Subclass ActiveX Control is your go-to tool. This allows you to subclass Forms, textbox, rich textbox, tree view, list box, labels or any kind of controls that you can get its handle, without having to worry about crashing due to using the SubClass technique.
Last but not least, the Balloon ActiveX Control is another powerful tool in the ASTC component's toolkit. This tool allows you to assign a balloon tooltip to a particular control or window, customize the balloon style, backcolor, and forecolor, and much more. There are even custom events associated with the balloon such as BalloonHide, BalloonLeftClick, BalloonRightClick, and BalloonShow.
Overall, the ASTC 1.50 installer package is an excellent choice for developers looking to enhance their software applications. It also comes with sample code for all four controls in various languages such as VB6.0, VC++6.0, VB.NET, VC#.NET, and VJ#.NET.
