Open wikijm opened this issue 10 years ago • 9 comments

Hi,

I would like to know if it's possible to add some text (description?) on the tray icon.

Context: My dad is blind, so it must a screen reader software,named JAWS or NVDA, to use a computer. When he try to list all applications on tray icon area, he is not able to see your app (see attached file). tray icon area

Potential solution: Add appIcon.setTitle('Chromecast Audio Stream'); on line 54, between })); and appIcon.setContextMenu(contextMenu); on main.js file

Hi Acid!

I don't found text description on tray icon in last release. Do you implement it?

Is someone could try my suggestion? I don't know how to compile after modification application.

You just need to execute, "grunt dev"

After http://electron.atom.io/docs/v0.27.0/api/tray/ relecture, I assume that my solution works only on MacOS. Is someone could confirm?

Hi @acidhax,

Is there any significant progress? Sorry to ask again, but I clearly don't have necessary skill to do it by my own.
