It is my understanding that system tray icons aren't shown (by default) in gnome3. See also: http://askubuntu.com/questions/155545/how-do-i-get-qsystemtrayicon-to-show-up-in-gnome-3 (In reply to Rex Dieter from comment #1) > It is my understanding that system tray icons aren't shown (by default) in > gnome3. > > See also: > http://askubuntu.com/questions/155545/how-do-i-get-qsystemtrayicon-to-show- > up-in-gnome-3 I could look for the icon near the bottom in the previous fedora version, but there are not those icons anywhere in Fedora 19. Not sure how gnome works, and bugzilla really isn't a tech-support, but... reassigning to gnome-shell, for advice on where/how to find/see systray icons. (In reply to tnrgus from comment #2) > I could look for the icon near the bottom in the previous fedora version, > but there are not those icons anywhere in Fedora 19. This should still be the case, e.g. we didn't make any (conscious) changes to the way legacy status icons are handled. Can you try to reproduce the problem with GTK+'s status icon implementation? I'm not seeing it here, so possibly something in QT's implementation changed which broken on GNOME. Re: comment #2 you mention "previous fedora version", which one? Fwiw, we ship essentially the same Qt4 code on F17, F18, and F19 these days, so if it worked on f17/f18, and not f19, it's likely the failure is not Qt.

Sorry, I am not good at gtk+ implementation. Created attachment 763635 [details]
GTK TrayIcon Example

GTK TrayIcon Example
I built and run this example on both Fedora 18 and 19.
It displays the system tray icon on Fedora 18, but the icon does not show on Fedora 19.

If the desktop has the GNOME Panel Notification Area at first as soon as login, the systray example I mentioned shows a tray icon on Fedora 19. But the GNOME Panel Notification Area is not always shown. How can I display the notification area? If the desktop has the GNOME Panel Notification Area at first as soon as login, the systray example I mentioned shows a tray icon on Fedora 19. But that area is not always shown.

Systray of Qt Example
Please let me know the result of Qt Systray I attached. Once installing Fedora 19 Desktop Edition, I run the systray of Qt Example. But I could not look for the system tray icon. Created attachment 768149 [details]

(In reply to tnrgus from comment #14) https://wiki.gnome.org/GnomeOS/Design/Whiteboards/KeyboardShortcuts Toggle Message Tray Super+M And, is this still reproducible using this update? https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2013-15571/gtk3-3.8.4-1.fc19 that includes the fix for the possibly-related https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=701613 mentioned in comment #17 This message is a notice that Fedora 19 is now at end of life. Fedora has stopped maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 19. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now this bug will be closed as EOL if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '19'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version. Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not able to fix it before Fedora 19 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior this bug is closed as described in the policy above. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. Fedora 19 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2015-01-06. Fedora 19 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug. If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. If you are unable to reopen this bug, please file a new report against the current release. If you experience problems, please add a comment to this bug. Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed. |
