Show CVI Windows from the System Tray
I created a simple python script that creates an icon that sits in your system tray.
A right click on the icon lists all the opened cvi windows, select one to bring it to the foreground.
The workspace window is also always listed first and can also be brought to the foreground by double clicking the icon.
The following dependancies are required for the script.
http://www.python.org/ftp/python/2.5.1/python-2.5.1.msi
http://downloads.sourceforge.net/wxpython/wxPython2.8-win32-unicode-2.8.4.2-py25 .exe
http://heanet.dl.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/pywin32/pywin32-210.win32-py2.5.exe
Also the path of the icon is assumed to be
iconpath = r"C:\Program Files\National Instruments\CVI80\cvi.ico"
Open the script in an editor and change this to where yours resides.
