Thunderbird agenda native system notification? - notifications

I've been looking for an answer to this for weeks and figured I might just ask the question directly.
I'm using Thunderbird 102.6.1 on Windows 10. I'm looking to replace the "standard" Thunderbird agenda popups (see screenshot below) with a "native" system notification such as for Windows 10 Calendar (see 2nd screenshot below). This is mainly because the TB agenda popup steals focus from other apps and I often end up typing on that window instead of the one I was previously writing on, which is frustrating.
I know this is possible for email notifications and I've already enabled that in the TB options, however I couldn't find the equivalent for agenda alerts.
Thanks in advance for your help!
Cheers

VSTO create "notification bar"-like message in Outlook

I'd like to ask my users a simple question if they reply to a particular kind of email, and rather than popping up a msgbox("Question?",vbYesNo) style prompt (or a custom form)
I'd like to do it with a notification bar - similar to the one you get when an add-in is disabled:
Is this possible?
I don't know if that's what it's called, and I'm struggling to find any documentation online that doesn't relate to android notifications or similar.
Thanks in advance for your help
The best you can do is a top aligned task pane - see https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/visualstudio/vsto/walkthrough-displaying-custom-task-panes-with-e-mail-messages-in-outlook?view=vs-2017

What you want to do may not be possible, check this link:
A quote from the answer provided by MSDN support at the link:
"Microsoft hasn't provided methods or events for users to iterate or clear the URL navigation history. But with the events already provided, like Navigated, Navigating, you could implement your own navigation history class to log or clear the history."
There are also other links on the thread that may help you to develop a solution.

Custom Windows Taskbar Buttons [duplicate]

How do I go about creating my own taskbar toolbar, a la Windows Media Player:
Windows Media Player's Start bar toolbar http://me.monoxide.ws/images/wmp-toolbar.gif
Examples or documentation or even open source software that implements this for just about any language would be appreciated, but Google isn't being very helpful. Ultimately, I would like to do this in C# (I expect to need P/Invoke) for XP onwards, but any language and Vista onwards would be acceptable/helpful too.
Check this out:

It's called as "Desk Band"
See MSDN desription about this
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/shellcc/platform/shell/programmersguide/shell_adv/bands.asp
and sample over there
http://www.codeproject.com/csharp/dotnetbandobjects.asp
By the way, thanks for asking this question. Back in the days I also wanted to do this. However, yesterday I said bye bye to Windows and Hi to Mac. If you asked this yesterday I would upvote it trice if I could ;-)
You'll notice that Media Player on Win7 doesn't have a desk band. Instead it has tiny play/pause buttons in the thumbnail preview that appears when you mouse over the taskbar icon. You can do the same thing for your application. If you use Code Pack (http://code.msdn.microsoft.com/WindowsAPICodePack) there is a sample under Samples\Shell\ThumbnailToolbarDemo. Windows 7 only, but way less annoying than taking up an inch or two of taskbar, and just as handy when you want to insta-pause.

Why is my VB app invisible to the screen recorder?

I have written a VB application in VS2010. When I try to record its operation for a demo video with Windows Media Encoder x64 or Apowersoft free screen recorder, I get a recording of everything on the desktop except my application. It's like the application is invisible to the recorder. It has worked in the past (2 weeks ago). It must be something I have done but I'm baffled. Is there a "feature" in VB that can prevent you from recording the Form?
BTW, a still screen capture works fine and sub forms I bring up are captured. Only the main form is invisible to the recorder.
Thank you for your help and time.
Not a VS or VB problem after all. What I found was that windows 7 was switching me from Aero Theme to Windows 7 Basic. The message that showed up was that I was low on display memory. (A quick pop-up in the bottom right corner that I was ignored during the recording). However, I have 4.75 G of display memory?
BTW on a video conf call it produced the same invisibility "feature" until I found the Theme switch.
I haven't actually fixed anything but now know to watch for the tell tale screen blink as it switches mode. I pause the recording, and switch it back before restarting the recording. Got through the recordings I needed for now. I was using MS Media Encoder. I have now replaced it with Adobe Premier elements but haven't tried it yet to see if I still have the problem. Need to get the "how to" videos out the door first.
Thanks again. I have read many of your Answers to others in the past that have helped me solve numerous other VB and VS problems.
Michael
That's weird since it's recording forms from the application and not other forms (main form) from the same application.
Make sure you run the recorder as administrator and not the application.

Iphone, phone gap, childbrowser and email functionality

i have recently built my first app using phone gap and have managed to get childbrowser working to open PDF's. I was wondering if anyone knew how, or if it was even possible to add email functionality to Childbrowser. Currently, in the top right of the ChildBrowser bar, there is a button that produces a drop down with the option to open it in iBooks, SIGNificant and Dropbox, is it possible to edit this to add an email button or just add an email button straight into the UI bar?
I'm guessing that this cannot be done without using Obj-C. perhaps it will be included in later versions.
