NotifyIconEx is an easy-to-use library for displaying NotifyIcon (notification icon) in `WPF` / `WinForms` / `Avalonia` / `WinUI` / `MAUI` / `Wice` applications, offering non-intrusive system notifications and quick access functionality in the taskbar.

> Support dark mode / show icon / checkable / submenus.
>
> You should enable the HiDPI in your Application for better rendering.

## Usage

NotifyIconEx is available as [NuGet package](https://www.nuget.org/packages/NotifyIconEx).

```csharp
using NotifyIconEx;

var notifyIcon = new NotifyIcon()
{
    Text = "NotifyIcon",
    Icon = Icon.ExtractAssociatedIcon(Process.GetCurrentProcess().MainModule?.FileName!)!
};
notifyIcon.AddMenu("MenuItem1", new Bitmap(ResourceHelper.GetStream("pack://application:,,,/Assets/Images/Lock.png")));
var toDisableItem = notifyIcon.AddMenu("MenuItem2", new Bitmap(ResourceHelper.GetStream("pack://application:,,,/Assets/Images/Lock.png")));
notifyIcon.AddMenu("-");
notifyIcon.AddMenu("MenuItem3");
notifyIcon.AddMenu("MenuItem4", true);
notifyIcon.AddMenu("MenuItem5", OnClick);
notifyIcon.AddMenu("-");
notifyIcon.AddMenu("SubMenu", null!,
[
    new ToolStripMenuItem("SubMenuItem1"),
    new ToolStripMenuItem("SubMenuItem2"),
    new ToolStripMenuItem("SubMenuItem3"),
    new ToolStripMenuItem("SubSubMenu", null!,
    [
        new ToolStripMenuItem("SubSubMenuItem1"),
        new ToolStripMenuItem("SubSubMenuItem2"),
        new ToolStripMenuItem("SubSubMenuItem3")
    ])
]);
notifyIcon.AddMenu("-");
notifyIcon.AddMenu("Exit", (_, _) => Current.Shutdown());
notifyIcon.BalloonTipShown += OnBalloonTipShown;

toDisableItem.Enabled = false;

void OnBalloonTipShown(object? sender, EventArgs e)
{
    Debug.WriteLine("OnBalloonTipShown");
}

void OnClick(object? sender, EventArgs e)
{
    notifyIcon.BalloonTipTitle = "Title";
    notifyIcon.BalloonTipText = "This Balloon Tips";
    notifyIcon.ShowBalloonTip(5);
}
```

You can set the context menu theme like following:

```csharp
// NotifyIcon default theme follows the system theme.
// Change it to Dark theme.
NotifyIcon.Theme = NotifyIconTheme.Dark;
```
