can anyone give me a clue on how one can make skype like notifications alert popups using win32 api's.
In window one can show balloon tips using shell_notifyicon(..) but it doesn't have any look-and-feel.
I would be very thankful if someone guide me a little on this topic.Also how do we decorate win32 windows as skype did?
You can write your own. As a starting point, you can have a look at my code here:
StatusBarMsgWnd.h
StatusBarMsgWnd.cpp

I am trying to develop a xamarin.forms app which have the functionality to make call and record it.Why I am writing this question is I want some clarifications regarding this.I cant find a proper solution on web.
1 The app workflow will be like this. When user tap on the number on my app it will open the dialer (in Android and iOS). User will complete the call and return back to app.The app will get the call record and store it.
Is this scenario possible with Xamarin.forms? If possible, any links will be appreciated.
2. Suppose the above scenaerio is not possible, then what will be the best approach? I heard about Twilio voip call sdk for xamarin. Is Twilio really support voip call for xamarin? I found these links, but it seems outdated.

https://www.twilio.com/blog/2014/10/twilio-client-for-xamarin-part-2-ios.html Is there any other voip sdk available which will fullfil my requirement.Any help is appreciated. Because I have been stuck on this for days.
EDIT If I implement Twilio calling in web and calling it as a webview in mobile.Can I make work above scenario?
I'm working on a feature that allows users to capture windows and stream them. Using native windows api calls, I'm able to get a windows location and capture it.
BUT, if there is a window over it... I'm not able to capture that blocked portion and I just replace that area with gray.
SOMEHOW... google chrome, a non-microsoft app... figured out how to capture a window while it's behind other windows. Skype for Business, a Microsoft product, can't even do that.
Has anyone worked on something like this before? If so, a point in the right direction would be extremely appreciated.
Thanks!
i would like the app that i have created on wp7 to display alerts on the live tiles. I was going to use push notifications to do this. So, whenever there is an alert, the app will produce a push notification and then the live tile would display the push notification alert. I have tried to find sample codes on msdn and i have not found much. Does anyone know any code sample for wp7 that would help.thank you!
MSDN has extensive howto articles and sample code; there is even a How to: Send and Receive Tile Notifications for Windows Phone which sounds like it should do what you need.
This may be of help to you: Windows Phone 7 notifications. I went to a Windows Phone camp and came away feeling that there are, in fact, very distinct notifications and you have to make sure you're working with the right type for the right job. That link covers the types and their purposes, but did want to give you a heads up on that.
within my app I'd like to know when something is pasted from the clipboard, even if it does not happen in my application. So if a copy happens in let's say Safari and the paste is happening in let's say TextEdit, then I'd like to get a notification of that in my own application. Is this anyhow possible?

Any help is appreciated!

You can observe the keyboard input using Quartz Event Services or Carbon Event Manager.
Note that sandboxing your app will break this feature.
