Tray Icon missing on KDE 5 #1104

Closed Ineluki closed 8 years ago

Ineluki commented 9 years ago

Running Kubuntu 15.04, where "XEmbed-based systemtray [are] not supported anymore" Since my uTox was set to start in the tray, I now have no way of accessing it.

Try utox --set=show-window.

Good workaround for the moment, thanks!

It's not really a bug, KDE decided to break support for that feature. You're likely on an out dated version if that start flag doesn't work for you

KDE are apparently working on a fake X window host that can emulate the systray while retranslating it to appindicators, but if uTox wants to support Wayland in the future then it might be good idea to work on making a tray icon using appindicator.

duplacated and maybe solved at https://github.com/GrayHatter/uTox/

ananace commented 8 years ago

Hard to say if it's solved or not now though, KDE have released their SNI systray emulator, so the tray icon will show on KDE 5 either way.

GrayHatter commented 8 years ago

either way systray is going to be killed, so we should support their new tray as well.
