[Feature request] Allow caffeine to be activated by single left click

Open Piulinux opened this issue 3 years ago • 4 comments

Hey, I really like your application as it's pretty useful. Would you mind to add an option in the preferences that the inhibition of the automatic screen locking can be activated with a left click on the tray icon (while right click continues to have the old behaviour)?

This is, AFAIK, not supported by AppIndicators, so applications can't implement this.

Suggestion: Isn't it possible to point mouse cursor to Caffeine-ng tray icon (no clicks) & "Enable" by scrolling up ; "Disable" by scrolling down, just like we increase/decrease volume from system tray?

Ok, this is not same as @Piulinux 's feature request but IMO mouse scroller to control application is easier & more productive for users.

I don't think this is possible for AppIndicators. Any examples of applications that do this?

On my desktop, this is the only application. Xfce PulseAudio Panel Plugin I think all other similar volume control apps does the same thing.
