Except that the tray icon isn't related to the Dock icon on OS X ... It shows up in the menubar and is much too small to add a sensible progressbar to it. >Windows also has taskbar progress. Not sure about KDE/Linux. On Wednesday June 22 2016 10:08:03 Eike Ziller wrote: >Nobody of us found a sensible way to do something similar on various Linux >desktops though. As Kevin said, there's something in Unity that could be used (cf https://git.reviewboard.kde.org/r/127050), but closer to home you can also find a progressbar via the KNotifications systray icon/menu. At least there's one in KDE4 showing the progress of certain file copy operations. Whether it's useful to have such a display in a GUI element that you have to expose explicitly is a bit of a question; if the application providing the progress info has a progressbar of its own (like Creator) you could just as well expose or switch to that application. >Qt Creator has an implementation for windows too >http://code.qt.io/cgit/qt-creator/qt-creator.git/tree/src/plugins/coreplugin/progressmanager/progressmanager_win.cpp Yeah, but without a proper MSWin dev rig I'm not going to propose anything to provide it via an upstream patch/class ;) R. _______________________________________________ Development mailing list Development@qt-project.org http://lists.qt-project.org/mailman/listinfo/development
