Is it possible to make a taskbar dropup application with QT? See link for example.

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.

Then again, look at QSystemTrayIcon

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.
