This commit adds a tray icon to the application, shown in the system tray bar, that can be used to minimise the application window. This is a common feature on most desktop messaging apps (e.g. Telegram Desktop or Slack) and allows to save space in the system task bar. The tray icon provides a context menu that contains a button to show/hide the application window, and a button to quit the application. When the tray icon is clicked, the visibility of the window is toggled. When the close (x) button of the window is pressed, the application is not terminated but minimised to the tray icon instead (it can be terminated by using the "Quit" entry in the File menu or in the context menu of the tray icon). The tray icon is disabled by default, and two command line arguments are available to enable it: --use-tray-icon: enables the tray icon --start-in-tray: enables the tray icon and the application starts minimised in the tray bar Resolves: #1480 |
