How to implement, using WPF, notifications mechanism similar to what eg. Chrome has? By which I mean: custom content pop-up, displaying especially when my main application window is minimized.

Things I have tried out so far:

  1. WPF Popup class with StaysOpen property set to true. Seems okay, except that it disappears when I minimize the main window.
  2. Custom template window: well, it's a window, so it appears as another application window in the taskbar, which I'd like to avoid.

    In case of your 2nd thing, you technically can hide the new custom template window from taskbar by setting your Window's `ShowInTaskbar="False"` – kurakura88 Aug 08 '18 at 08:36
