system tray icon not being removed #511

Closed ceonelson closed 2 months ago

ceonelson commented 1 year ago

Latest version, win 10 running from terminal.

When closing tartube, the system tray icon stays around:

Mousing over them will remove the old icons. I'll test shortly to see if a DB swap causes icons or if it is just closing the program and reopening it from command prompt.

Doesn't happen on DB switch, only app close and reopen.

The code that handles the system tray icon hasn't changed for a long time, so it's possibly (yet another) Gtk bug. I'll check it out; if it's an annoyance, the icon can be disabled completely (Edit > System preferences > Windows > Tray).

Yes it has been happening for quite a long time (at least a year), just always forgot to post about it until now.

Not a big deal I just hover over them every now and then to get rid of the old ones :)

I had the same problem on Linux's Cinnamon desktop until the last (Cinnamon) release, whereupon it magically fixed itself.

I spent a few minutes testing Tartube v2.4.260 on Windows 10, but I couldn't reproduce the duplicate icons. On my system, the icon disappears as soon as Tartube shuts down.

Not sure what to suggest, except perhaps replacing MS Windows with a different operating system ;)
