Evidently, this can be accomplished by simply following this guide: http://www.cnet.com/news/prevent-an-applications-dock-icons-from-showing-in-os-x/

That is, the following needs to be appended to Statusfy.app/Contents/Info.plist under the dict element:

<key>LSUIElement</key>
<true/>

@jameslk I also found that but that isnt the recommended way from Apple to do this, also you have to restart the App to make the change.

jameslk commented 9 years ago

I believe you on that, but since it doesn't seem like your pull request has been merged yet, it was a nice hack for the time being :)

sidewinder12s commented 9 years ago

Haha oh ya it works. Actually what I did before I hacked together that pull request.

Would this cover the icon when doing Cmd+Tab?

Hi, i did merge the pull request from @sidewinder12s and refactor it a bit after in my fork. https://github.com/nekuz0r/Statusfy

I've developed a similar app, but don't have the icon in the dock. Is the decision to have the icon in the dock intentional? If not, I'd love to send a pull request.

For those wondering, this was this original issue that prompted the return of the dock icon: https://github.com/paulyoung/Statusfy/issues/11

I had hoped to do some refactoring before looking into #15 but clearly that was a long time ago and demand has increased, so I'll take another look soon.
