Non-visual component

[Johnny Jörgensen]

Has anybody got a link for a tutorial on how you develop a component that
doesn't have a visual appearance, i.e. a component that - when dropped on a
form - creates an icon in the frame at the bottom of the form designer (like
e.g. Timer, NotifyIcon etc).???

Cheers,
Johnny J.

1. Just add new 'component' to the project, write the code and build.
2. ctrl+alt+x
3. Add new item from the project you just created.
4. Add the component .
5. use it (drag the control).

i.e.

public class Timer : Component
{
.....
}
