[Feature Request] Hide tray icon optionally

Open Mj65536 opened this issue 2 months ago • 2 comments

SCM icon in the taskbar doesn't indicate any information, so if possible I want to hide it ( just like microsoft powertoys)

You can hide the system tray icon by editing SmartContextMenu.xml file manually. To do this, follow these steps:

  1. Open file
c:\Users\YOUR_USER_NAME\AppData\Roaming\SmartContextMenu\1.7.2\SmartContextMenu.xml
  1. Edit the line from
<systemTrayIcon show="true" />

to

<systemTrayIcon show="false" />
  1. Restart SCM

Thank you, hiding tray icon worked.

And is there any way to do the three things below (globally for all existing windows) via command line:

I tried run "SmartContextMenu.exe --clickthrough off" but nothing happens, cause I don't know how to match all windows, thanks a lot !
