[Feature Request]: Something like Tray Application.

Open Tolomaj opened this issue 3 years ago • 2 comments

It would be awesome if I could set the application as a "tray application". Whenever this application is minimized, it would be minimized to the toolbar. Something like automatic "Minimalize to tray".

Sorry for the late reply, but yes, looks a good idea. To be honest this program needs a revamp with new features too, like move to another virtual desktop (Windows 10).

Not sure when I will start working on this again, but consider it on my list.

I was going to ask for the same thing. There's also a slight variation that I hope would be easy to implement at the same time: override the close button so that instead of closing the app, it minimizes it to the system tray.

As an example use case, I use Teams and Outlook at work, and the way they behave is annoyingly different. Teams automatically does what I suggested, where closing the window leaves the app in the system tray. Outlook, OHOH, shuts down completely if you press the close button, so you have to remember to click the minimize button instead if you want to keep getting notifications about things like upcoming meetings. Right now I'm using an AutoHotKey script to re-open Outlook if I close it by accident, but that feels like a pretty ugly hack.
