Is this for the tray icon? Mine here works via the tray. This would be dependant on what you want to have it do and I believe whatever icons you are to use would have to be inbeded into a dll file. With of course whatever action it would call for sync or inactive.

Also what are you using for a Bluetooth radio would help. Need specs for computer and system{ OS }!
Most for sure the specs on what program or type of bluetooth you are configuring.

Once I have this I can see if it is possible to work with or change the preset icons.

It's actually mimicing the tray icons look on active sync and bluetooth, just inside a dock...

If I add the systray to the dock 1) It looks ugly 2) I end up with all the other nonsense.

The Icons are actually readily available on the site for BT and Activesync,

As for BT, I guess the most commom BT would be the Widcomm radio / driver. And running XP.

The BT would just be a general radio status icon...think wifi splash and how it updates itself based on connectivity.

SGT . . perhaps I misunderstood the request . . but I thought the requester was looking for a docklet that was active . . not static icons.  Something that read WMI or the app API and changed accordingly.  I may have been so far off on this one.

Active icons... not static.


I tried using the sysstats wifi splash as a model, that updated itself based on the status...

but I have no idea where in the registry / i can find the bt / AS status and how to parse it.

Actually I think it would just be a modification of the wifisplash script and icon paths.

You could probably make them active with DesktopX. That is, if they are going on your desktop. Is this what you want?

He'd also need a way to call those apps to show activity.  API, RSS, WMI, something.
