Tray click events on linux not firing #104

Open svefro opened 10 months ago

svefro commented 10 months ago

Are not triggered on linux.

I have found out that this is due to a limit in libappindicator used on linux.

Is it possible to switch to another lib or to submit a feature request to the maintainers of libappindicator? I can not find it.

The situation on Linux is in a weird state, libappindicator is deprecated and the new maintained version is libayatana-appindicator which still doesn't support the click events, there is also KDE/freedesktop StatusNotifierItem specification and there is an implementation of it here https://github.com/iovxw/ksni but I am not sure if it supports that either or if other distros other than KDE support it.

It's always in a weird state on linux :p Thanks for the informative and quick reply.

I guess that getting this to work on KDE is better than no linux distros. Anyway i think the issue should remain open until it has been resolved so it is a fully featured tray icon.

Maybe this crate should switch to use https://github.com/iovxw/ksni "under the hood"? At least if running on KDE.

It works well with Tauri 1.x.

The menu events yes, but not clicks on the icon itself. That never worked on v1 either.

vangork commented 9 months ago

Okey. BTW, since tauri 2.0.0 removed get_item() method in the app_handle.tray(), how to change the title for an existing menu item? @FabianLars
