So I`m using Visual Studio 2012 and have application, which creates notifyIcon and show it, if i close application then notifyIcon hides, but if I stop debugger then closes only forms, but notifyIcon still visible while I not hover it with mouse.
Is it possible to configure Visual Studio 2010 to hide notifyIcon when I stop debugger?
(Sorry for my bad english)
Nope.
There are Windows APIs that tell the shell to show and hide the notification icons, and the NotifyIcon class just wraps those APIs.
If you stop the debugger, the NotifyIcon object never gets the chance to call the API to hide the notification icon. Just mouse over it; the shell will realize the application that asked for the icon is not running, and will remove the icon.
This issue can happen for any application that manages notification icons, not just Visual Studio.
