I get the same error. The icons do not appear. I have the element.io application running in the background but no icons are present. The installation was done with meson and then with the deb package.

Hi I'll work on the warnings, when I have time. I started using fedora much more but i upgraded my elementaryos to 7 now, so I can look into it.

@Wolf117Warrior Please try installing gir1.2-appindicator3-0.1 with

sudo apt install gir1.2-appindicator3-0.1

and reboot. I used NordIndicator to test it and it worked after installing gir1.2-appindicator3-0.1. Please let me know, if this resolves your issue for now.

@MvBonin Are indicators on Pantheon Fedora possible?

[MvBonin]

@kalligator I didn't try that yet..

[MvBonin]

Since the compilation works even with the warnings for now and this

I get the same error. The icons do not appear. I have the element.io application running in the background but no icons are present. The installation was done with meson and then with the deb package.

can be fixed by installing additional dependencies,

sudo apt install gir1.2-appindicator3-0.1

I'll close the issue for now and added the dependency to the Readme in b9baee5.

It's not working properly. Try an app that reads mouse wheel scrolling like radiotray-ng and you'll see the custom indicators get vanished as soon as you scroll on it (so as to adjust the volume).

Oh ok. Thats interesting! But since the Indicators appear first, I opened a different issue for this #3

Sorry for the delay in response. I do have the icons that appear, no change before or after installing the package. So, I guess more a problem related to the element.io application.
