Cross-platform SystemTray and AppIndicator support for java applications.
This small library only purpose is to show *reasonably* decent system-tray icons/app-indicators with a simple popup-menu.
This libraries only purpose is to show *reasonably* decent system-tray icons and app-indicators with a simple popup-menu.
There are a number of problems on Linux with the Swing (and SWT) system-tray icons, namely that
1. Swing system-tray icons on linux do not support transparent backgrounds (they have a white background)
2. Swing/SWT do not support app-indicators, which are necessary on more recent versions of linux (ie: ubuntu)
1. Swing system-tray icons on linux **do not** support transparent backgrounds (they have a white background)
2. Swing/SWT **do not** support app-indicators, which are necessary on more recent versions of linux (ie: ubuntu)
3. Swing popup menus look like crap
- system-tray icons use a JMenuPopup, which looks nicer than the java 'regular' one.
- app-indicators use native popups.
