Bug ID: 381237
Summary: GTK3 app's tray icons don't show up in Plasma tray
Product: ksystraycmd
Version: unspecified
Platform: Archlinux Packages
OS: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Target Milestone: ---
First time I mentioned it some monthes ago, when I was running Thunderbird with
the addon MinimizeToTray revived (MinTrayR). The icon didn't show up anymore.
This was an error of the addon, because VLC, Pidgin, and wineHQ worked as
expected. I changed the addon to FireTray and Thunderbird works again with a
(much better) tray icon, too.
Last weekend I did backups on my Archlinux but now the icon for VLC, Pidgin and
Thunderbird are missing.
The apps (especially Pidgin and Thunderbird) act like the icons are anywhere.
When I press "close" they're minimized to a invisible tray, so I have to use
the regular link to start the app, only to get the window back on sight.
Dropbox icon works fine, the wine icon uses it's own solution: It puts its own
"Windows" tray as window on my desktop.
After the updates I installed wxgtk3 and wxgtk-common, too, because I read in
any forum, some apps are using old libraries for the icons. After a reboot
Pidgin's icon showed up in system tray one time. I tought "solved", but after
the next reboot same behaviour came back and it's still the same until now.
I created some new user and started Pidgin with the same effect: no tray icon.
Reproduction:
Pidgin: Simply start Pidgin - it works only with tray icon, and it is anywhere,
but not visible
VLC: activate the tray icon - and don't see it anywhere
Thunderbird: Install the addon "FireTray" and set it up to show the icon
everytime.
