Hide menu icon

[jackyfox]

Hello,

Thank you for the app. Really useful.

Is there any way to hide menu icon of this app?

Hello @jackyfox! You're very welcome, I'm glad you find it useful.

I believe you can remove any icon from menu bar by holding down the Command (⌘) key, left click and drag the icon you want to remove out of the menu bar and onto the desktop - and let it go... Let it go! 🙂

holding down the Command (⌘) key, left click and drag the icon

It works with default system icons like Volume, Battery and WiFi, but I can't remove CommandShift icon :(

Hi @jackyfox and @lucellent! I'm grad you find my app useful. In release 1.02 I made it possible to hide app-icon from system's tray menu

Just press the button once and that's it. Cheers from Ukraine! ;-)

@jackyfox @lucellent @dmrkv @mshannaq @serrj-sv please check the latest release where I made it possible to choose whether you would like to hide tray icon from the menu permanently or until restart: https://github.com/VasylBaran/CommandShift/releases/tag/1.03
