2 years ago I had the same problem. I was able to do your suggestion, and it starts minimized to the tray. However, I am unable to access the configuration window. I can right click the tray icon and have it go the the next wallpaper and such, but this is only from my previous config. I have tried blowing up the local config folder, and that does not help. Output of when I try to show the configuration window:
Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/lib/python3.10/site-packages/superpaper/tray.py", line 60, in <lambda> menu.Bind(wx.EVT_MENU, lambda event: func(event, *args), id=item.GetId()) File "/usr/lib/python3.10/site-packages/superpaper/tray.py", line 299, in configure_wallpapers config_frame = ConfigFrame(self) File "/usr/lib/python3.10/site-packages/superpaper/gui.py", line 31, in __init__ config_panel = WallpaperSettingsPanel(self, parent_tray_obj) File "/usr/lib/python3.10/site-packages/superpaper/gui.py", line 74, in __init__ self.wpprev_pnl = WallpaperPreviewPanel(self, self.display_sys) File "/usr/lib/python3.10/site-packages/superpaper/gui.py", line 1363, in __init__ self.draw_displays() File "/usr/lib/python3.10/site-packages/superpaper/gui.py", line 1381, in draw_displays bmp_canv = wx.Bitmap.FromRGBA(self.dtop_canvas_relsz[0], self.dtop_canvas_relsz[1], red=0, green=0, blue=0, alpha=255) TypeError: Bitmap.FromRGBA(): argument 1 has unexpected type 'float'
I'm guessing the last line is the suspect. Any suggestions?
EDIT: I found this bug here: https://github.com/polychromatic/polychromatic/issues/361 , but that is in reference to a different program. I am sure this is the issue, but I am not sure how to advance. Sorry, I might should start a new thread for this. I did not realize until now that it is a separate issue.

openSUSE Tumbleweed running KDE Plasma X11, Superpaper installed via Zypper.
After accepting a slew of updates a few days ago, Superpaper would no longer launch. Selecting the icon from launcher menu would kick it off, with the icon briefly appearing in the taskbar, but would then quit with no information, and no orphaned running processes.
Attempting to start Superpaper from cli however revealed the problem. This is the output:

collections.Iterableis now deprecated and is no longer supported in current Python versions since 3.8. I guess Python was updated on my system which must have been using an older version previously.It has been replaced by
collections.abc.IterableI modified the file system_hotkey.py and changed the line to the new value.
Superpaper now launches properly again.
