LogiTech SetPoint v2.46, -hide systray icon.

[BoardBabe]

Where is the information stored wether systray icon should show or not. It's set default to show, and I'd like it to be hidden as default.

Tried regshot with no luck.

You can find it in the "startup" folder as a shortcut.

So just delete that file and it won't start with Windows.

Uh, okey and the relevance to topic is?

As first post asks; how can I hide the tray icon? (Not how do I keep SetPoint from running on startup, I need SetPoint to run, but it's still possible to hide tray icon...)

BoardBabe: is there .INI filw in setpoint folder? or maybe you can search in registry for specific key. i know it's not a short way, but if nothing helps...

[BoardBabe]

Well there's nothing in the registry im pretty sure. As i ran regshot. and I could not find any relevant ini file

Hehe, it is quite easy. Logitech's SetPoint saves ALL its settings in

"%appdata%\Logitech\SetPoint\user.xml"

So what I do, is to configure SetPoint, then I add the user.xml to my UA-DVD and use the following batch file to copy the configuration to HDD BEFORE I install SetPoint via AutoIt.

cmdow @ /HID
@echo off

md "%appdata%\Logitech\SetPoint"

for %%i in (C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z) do if exist %%i:\WIN51 set CDROM=%%i:

copy /Y "%CDROM%\Install\Dirver\SetPoint\user.xml" "%appdata%\Logitech\SetPoint\user.xml"

Works for me (and also the settings, if the tray icon hides or not is in it, as you can configure this in SetPoint, right?)

@Dynaletik: What can I say.... -Thank you! That's exactly the info I was looking for. Embarrased i didnt check appdata folder myself though, hehe

Thanks!

Oh one more thing though. I see the XML contains some references to some APPS. Can a XML file contain %SystemDrive% parameter?

<Apps>
	  <App>C:\\PROGRA~1\\MICROS~2\\OFFICE11\\OUTLOOK.EXE</App>
	  <App>C:\\PROGRA~1\\MICROS~2\\OFFICE11\\WINWORD.EXE</App>
	  <App>C:\\PROGRA~1\\MICROS~2\\OFFICE11\\POWERPNT.EXE</App>
	  <App>C:\\PROGRA~1\\MICROS~2\\OFFICE11\\EXCEL.EXE</App>
   </Apps>

Above was found in the .xml file, do I need it? And could path be changed to %SystemDrive%......?

I don't know if this works with %systemdrive%, but that are the applications, that get started, when you hit the excel key on your keyboard.

I would have answered this earlier, but we had a lack of energy in germany, because of the weather. I'm using this method since one year now. It just works, but never tested with %systemdrive% or %programfiles%. Sorry.

Since I don't even use the keyboard It's no biggy
