App visibility in panel tray only when minimzed? #177

Closed mikeblackstock closed 2 years ago

mikeblackstock commented 2 years ago

My os-js project [screencap attached] presents the user with a number of apps 'tiled' on the screen, at startup, and clicking on their iicons in the panel tray evidently does nothing. This seems to confuse new users, who expect something to happen when they click on webpage links.

Is their a way to make apps appear in the panel tray only when they've been minimized? I've gone through all the docs, and I can't find a visibility attribute other than 'restricted/global'.

thx for any advice!

Made a patch for you on this.

If you update @osjs/panels and then add this to your src/client/index.scss and rebuild, you should be able to make this work.

.osjs-panel-item[data-name="windows] div[data-minimized="false"] {
  display: none;
}

Fantastic, Anders. Works perfectly: a few additional apps can be started minimized and they'll stand out in the panel tray at start-up.

PS - small typo, in case anyone else is following: there should be a double quote after data-name="windows: [data-name="windows"] Thx so much!
