    Hi and welcome to devnet,

    You should check the QtWinExtras module, it might contain what you want. Here you can find an overview of the specific classes.

    Hope it helps

          That can be done with a QSystemTrayIcon and a custom widget for the popup part

            @SGaist When I use QSystemTrayIcon it just puts an icon the task bar that opens a qt window. I just need a dropdown.

              The example you posted on OS X is a tray icon with a customized menu or widget. There's no right click context menu on that bar.

                @SGaist I don't want to use right click. I just need it when the user clicks on the icon on the taskbar a dropdown list appears.

                  Then again, look at QSystemTrayIcon

                    @SGaist Where would I start.

                    Note: I'm new to Qt.

                      By reading the documentation I linked to and the examples also available from Qt. The "System Tray Icon" example is a good start.
