I know it's been a while since you posted (and even long since I've read
the list archives), so maybe you have figured this out already, but just
in case (and so future folks can Google it)...
In order to make the tray icon disappear properly, you need to call
hide() or setVisible(False) on it first, but of course you have to do
that within your main loop. So you'll probably need to hook your quit
signal up to a helper function that will hide the tray, then actually exit.
Hope this helps,

Hello.
I am trying to put an icon into the system tray area using
QSystemTrayIcon. All work well except when I close the program.
I put the icon in the area using this code:
----
icon=QtGui.QIcon("pixmaps/todo_list.png")
systray=QtGui.QSystemTrayIcon(icon)
#systray.setIcon(icon)
menu = QtGui.QMenu()
quitAction = menu.addAction('Quit')
systray.setContextMenu(menu)
quitAction.connect(quitAction, QtCore.SIGNAL("triggered()"),
ui.QuitApp)
systray.show()
sys.exit(app.exec_())
-----
I have two minor problems:
1) when I close the program, the icon stay in the tray area until I move
the mouse pointer over it, at this point it go away
2) after exiting from the program, I get this error:
QApplication::qAppName: Please instantiate the QApplication object first
I have the feeling that the two problems are connected, but I cannot
find a clue
I am working with Qt 4.3.3 and PyQt4.3.3.2 under Windows XP
Any suggestions ?
thanks in advance
Gianluca
