How to display a WPF control on the Windows taskbar?

Question

WPF

There is an application on WPF and there was a need for this kind of "widget" on the taskbar, as in the screenshots below.
Zune software.
Windows Media Player
Unfortunately, WPF lacks functionality for working with the taskbar as such. I believe that there are some functions in WinAPI for solving such problems. However, this is all hidden in some wilds unknown to me, or I just searched / googled badly. Maybe someone has already encountered such a problem?

Answer 1

Found a solution. Such controls in the taskbar are called DeskBand . For WPF/WinForm there is even a library for these needs.

Answer 2

Why not right away? They are in WPF.
