Getting coordinates of tray icon click

When a tray icon is clicked, the specified callback message is sent to the specified window. But, how can I find out where to display a shortcut menu? Ie, how can I correctly position a context menu next to the system tray?

I'm using this:

POINT p;
GetCursorPos(&p);

Cool thanks.

Another problem: When I display the menu, but I click somewhere else on the screen, the menu stays there, and I can't do anything, effectively the computer is useless, until I either go back to the program or click the menu. How can I remove this behavior?

After the call to GetCursorPos() call SetForegroundWindow() with your main window handle, then call TrackPopupMenuEx().

Works like a charm, thanks.

you schould bring your program's window to front, when showing the menu (even if it's not shown):

SetForegroundWindow(hWnd);


edit: too slow ^^

And one more: How can I make the bottom right corner of the menu where the cursor is? Every other context menu is like that, but mine has the cursor at the top left.
