QSystemTrayIcon in Linux
-
I'm working in an app that creates a TrayIcon on the system, it's working perfectly on Windows but it's not showing in linux. I'm not sure if it's the version of linux. I left here the code I'm ussing.
if (QSystemTrayIcon::isSystemTrayAvailable()) { trayIcon = new QSystemTrayIcon(this); trayIcon->setIcon(QIcon(":/Imagenes/iconosPERFQ-23.png")); trayIcon->setToolTip(tr("PerfQ Client")); trayIcon->setVisible(true); connect(trayIcon, SIGNAL(activated(QSystemTrayIcon::ActivationReason)), this, SLOT(iconActivated(QSystemTrayIcon::ActivationReason))); }

Hi,
Did you check whether isSystemTrayAvailable returns false ?
If not, what distribution are you using ?

I have a similar problem. The tray icon in Linux is shown in the top left corner instead of the right bottom corner, if I run the application as normal user. That happens on Debian 7.
On Windows and Mac all well. -

Debian 7 with kde 4.8.4
But if I run my application from user console as root user by sux, the tray icon will be right, in the bottom right corner of the screen. -
Hi everyone,
this bug is fixed in Qt 5.5.0 Alpha; see: https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTBUG-31762 -
The trayIcon it's only apearing when I run the runable create in the build folder, how ever it dosen't show when I run it on Qt Creator or from the terminal.
The other problem it's that I detroy the trayicon when I close each window and create a new one to avoid having a buch of trayicons in the system tray. But this it's not working in linux.
