Separate apps for status icon #18

Open roman-yagodin opened 4 years ago

roman-yagodin commented 4 years ago

Due to incomplete (in GTK/GTK3 backends) and absent (WPF backend) implementation of status icon, it would be better to have separate projects for status icons apps (like R7.Webmater.StatusIcon.Gtk3, R7.Webmater.StatusIcon.WinForms)

Alternatively, does it really better to have icon in tray area instead of taskbar?

Example (from VSCode desktop file):

[Desktop Action new-empty-window]
Name=New Empty Window
Exec=/usr/share/code/code --no-sandbox --new-window %F
Icon=/usr/share/pixmaps/com.visualstudio.code.png
