single click show/hide in system tray
« on: June 23, 2008, 10:08:48 AM »

Please make showing/hiding amule via tray consistent with other applications. I do not know of single one that is using double click. Right now I am using KDE Keyboard Tool, KRandrtray, KMix, KMPlayer, Klipper, Mandriva Network Center, KMail/Kontakt, Alltray – all of them use single click.

Well, may be my gnome is something special, but any icon in my systray acts at single click (except for volume control - it uses both single and double click for different actions). And in windows there are some applications (eg outpost firewall, abbyy lingvo) that acts at single, by they are relatively rare.

Gnome can use double click or single click... I said double click because this is the default option in my system (Ubuntu) Other systems may have other configurations

Is this really the default behaviour for Ubuntu? I've seen no single application but amule which uses double click.
Anyway, as this is your expected behaviour, I would fix the wiki to be consistent...

I'm using Xubuntu and it's single click here as well.
I don't know how you guys do it, but even a double-click doesn't bring aMule to show the window. ???

VLC is double click, for example.

...maybe it integrates only with gnome?

Or maybe you must set it on VLC's options?

An easy workaround for those who consider it a problem would be to use alltray to start it.
