This library provides every MQL program with a separate icon in the notification area of the Windows taskbar. The library enables you to display text messages by sending them from your programs, or to use the icon to indicate a specific program status. The library operation is based on the Shell_NotifyIcon icon. For convenience, the CNotifyIcon class has been created allowing to hide the details of operations with Windows API functions and providing a set of methods for working with three functional elements, including the icon, the notification balloon and the tooltip.
The icon and the notification balloon are shown in Figure 1.
Fig. 1. Example of an icon and a notification balloon
A tooltip appears when you hover the mouse over the icon. An example of the tooltip is shown in Figure 2.</t1>

The library works stably on systems starting with Windows 7/Windows Server 2008 R2.
Icon
The icon size depends on DPI set in the screen settings in your operating system. 96 DPI is used by default, which corresponds to the 16×16 icon size. You need to know this in order to upload images of the appropriate size. In this case, your images will not be additionally converted by the system and, therefore, will not be distorted. It is not possible to upload an image of a smaller size.
You can find out the required image size by calling the GetSystemSize() function.
int icon_size = CNotifyIcon::GetSystemSize(ICON_SMALL);
In order to not to create images for every DPI value, you can prepare one size, say 24×24 (maximum DPI is 144) or 32×32 (maximum DPI is 240). Thus you can ensure compatibility with most users, but in this case the image will be automatically converted (size will be reduced) and can therefore be distorted. The examples show images in BMP with a size of 32×32 and a 32-bit color depth (with transparency).
There are five ways to upload an image for the icon:
The first and most obvious way is to upload from a file. In this case, the file can be located outside the file sandbox of the terminal.
The third way is to upload a one-dimensional array. Within this method, an image is preliminary converted into a one-dimensional array of RGBQUAD structures.

The fourth way is to upload from a string in Base64 encoding. BMP images can be converted to string using any online converter. The part of the string without the header (shown in red) is passed to the function:
The fifth and final method assumes that you have DLL, in which images are saved as a resource. Images are uploaded based on the resource number. As an example, we used the system shell32.dll, in which a lot of Windows icons are stored.
The icon for the balloon can be in two sizes: SMALL and LARGE. Upload methods are those that were used for icons. If you choose to work with a small icon (SMALL), then the image size must strictly correspond to the system set size, otherwise it will not be displayed. That’s why I recommend using a large icon size for the balloon or using any of the built-in icon types (NIIF_INFO, NIIF_WARNING, NIIF_ERROR).
The size of the uploaded image must not be less than the value returned by GetSystemSize().
Low values of time intervals in the Show() method are not processed by the system (the minimum delay is about 10 seconds). In order to overcome this restriction, we need to start the timer and call the Hide() method. The algorithm is implemented inside the DoTimer() function.
voidOnTimer()
  {
  notify_icon.DoTimer();
  }
A Tooltip
A tooltip is shown when you hover the mouse over the icon. The tooltip text can have several lines separated by “\n”.
notify_icon.ToolTip("My Indicator\nShow the ToolTip");
Below I provide an example of how to use the library with an indicator. The color of the icon indicates the values of iSAR. Blue means an upward movement, red means a downward direction. Balloons are shown when direction changes.
