Hi I use a code sample (WpfXamlPopup) that loads an icon and stream.
But I would use one. Png instead of one. Ico.
How to convert. Png. Ico and then stream this object?

Original code

System.IO.Stream iconStream = Application.GetResourceStream(new Uri("pack://application:,,/Images/Test.ico")).Stream;
            extendedNotifyIcon.targetNotifyIcon.Icon = new System.Drawing.Icon(iconStream);

Test code(Error)

System.IO.Stream iconStream = Application.GetResourceStream(new Uri("pack://application:,,/Images/Test.png")).Stream;
            extendedNotifyIcon.targetNotifyIcon.Icon = new System.Drawing.Icon(iconStream);

Thanks

You should take a look at this thread on StackOverflow:
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/384931/how-do-i-get-an-icon-from-a-png-image[^]

Personally, I'd convert the png to ico (the thread has a link to at tool to do that) as it is the path of least resistance, but it is always good to have the "full" solution!
