How to create a kde panel system tray icon set?

hi, i would like to perform a modification of oxygen style to obtain a system tray composed by icons only in grayscale or b/n tones.
i tried editing the klipper icon, by desaturating all klipper.png in the various oxygen directories, and it works fine.
but in this manner all the klipper's icons used by kde are in grayscale.
now, if i change kmix icons state, also amarok's and other icons would change?
is there any method to avoid this conflict?
bye

If you don't know how to program this in, you're probably out of luck. Would be interested in someone else proving me wrong though.
hi, i can't program the system tray it would be nice if there were someone that made a patch or something else. however i decolorize some icons (kmix, klipper and kmess) in a first try and this is the (not bad) result:

the thing is, kde HAS options for coloring icons in different places. Problem is that KDE does not use those - at least i never managed to make it work. It only worked if i set the colors globally
i tried to use this tool: only Desktop Effects works, but it changes both desktop and panel icons....but not system tray icons!!!
wow

  • How to add a minimize to system tray icon button?

    how can i add a minimize to system tray icon button near the others common buttons usually found on the upper right window bar? (i mean near the _ [] X)
    _ for minimize to taskbar
    [] for maximizing
    X for closing
    i'd like to add a fourth button to the left of the _ button for minimizing to system tray
    like in many programs the fourth button is a dot shaped one that minimizes the program to system tray
    i'd like to add one to my program as well, but i didnt find anything about this kind of buttons neither on google nor on java books
    can anyone help me?
    thank you!

    You can't (easily). The window decorations are controled by the operating system. Your best bet is to change the functionality of the minimize-to-taskbar button and make it into a minimize-to-tray button. In fact, all the programs that minimize to the tray on my computer - about 6 of them - do it this way.
    like in many programs the fourth button is a dot shaped one that minimizes the program to system trayI've never seen this?

  • How to minimize window into the system tray icon

    Hi,
    I tried to fin how to minimize the application main window into the right down corner (system tray bar) only as an icon cause I don't want to have it on main bar.
    Thx for any ideas.
    Wenca

    I've already done that, some years ago.
    Sorry, but I cannot give you the code, cause it has vanished after a few (!!!) system re-installations ;)
    But this was the main idea:
    - make a jni-dll
    - inside the dll, get the handle to the window you want to minimize
    - alter that window's properties
    It's rather easy, once you've avoided all pitfalls. I'll suggest http://www.codeproject.com , they've certainly some tutorials on minimizing to the system tray.

  • [KDE] amarok system tray icon opens instead in window

    Apologies if this has been answered; I really wasn't sure the correct search terms to use, which is really the most important part in solving any problem.
    So, I'm a six-month Kubuntu (and Linux) user switching to Arch because, well, I wanted more control over what I had installed on my system.  That, and the fact that the *buntu distro maintainers won't update the NVIDIA driver, even though the one in there doesn't work with the kernel shipped with Hardy... anyways.
    I always have amarok open, but when I boot up, I get the amarok icon in the top-left corner (looking like this), rather than in the system tray.  Usually closing and reopening will produce the desired effect.
    However, I would like for this to work properly without having to close and reopen, since that negates the benefit of having it start automatically.  I'm thinking that perhaps I should write a script that will close it on logout and open on login?

    Not a solution but a workarround, i don't use saved sessions in kde and have a script in ~/.kde/Autostart with things I want to start, might as well try that

  • How to avoid orphaned system tray icon?

    I know how to create a system tray icon for my application using InstallSysTrayIcon().
    I also know how to remove it before the program terminates (calling RemoveSysTrayIcon()).
    But the program closes in an expected way, or through the Task Manager, for example, the icon isn't deleted, and the user could think that the application is still running. Moreover, when you re-launch the application, a second icon is shown.
    The Windows OS removes the orphaned icon when the mouse hovers over the tray.
    It seems that this is an OS issue, and I did some web searches: I found this describing a way to avoid this behaviour in a C# application, but I haven't been able to port this solution to a CVI application.
    Is there a way to do this with CVI 2009?

    Hi Luca!
    Anyway if you're worried about program crashes your only option...
    Actually what I'm worried about is a little bit more complicated: my CVI application could be remotely closed by other applications running on the same or other PCs on the LAN. I should avoid the icon is left on the system tray while the application has been closed, giving a wrong information to the user...
    I've been using the task manager only to "simulate" a force close made by a different application.
    And sure, I must increase the error handling as much as I can to avoid application crash

  • Huge icons in xfce panel system tray

    Hi,
    i have huge icons in xfce panel system tray for pidgin and transmission... Any idea how to fix it?

    Are you using xfce4-power-manager in xfce4?  I can see that it appears that you are using the xfce4 panel, but it is not clear that you are using the rest of it.  If you are, isn't it started by the .desktop file?  In those files you can specify the icon used, so you might be able to simply change it to something more common to most icon sets. 
    Personally, I don't use icons or .desktop files, so I'm not sure that this is actually good advice.  But it is the first thing that came to mind.

  • How to create Rfc for EP system in Solution manager

    Dear experts,
    I am doing ChaRM configuration for my EP system ( java only).
    I also configured CTS+ successfully but we want to integrate this with Chram in solman.
    I have done all configuration according to standard doc for ChaRM.
    But when creating project from solar_admin it is giving "   NO RFC for DEP system"
    so please suggest me how to create RFC for java system in Solution manager.
    thanks in advance
    dhiraj

    Hello,
    You need to setup an ABAP communication client and system, that's done through the TMS settings:
    For source system:
    - CTC                                              1
    - CTS_SYSTEM_TYPE                          JAVA  (others for a MDM system)
    - NON_ABAP_SYSTEM                          1
    - COMMUNICATION_SYSTEM:              (SAPSID of the ABAP communication system (e.g. the domain controller))
    - NON_ABAP_WBO_CLIENT                    (Client of the ABAP stack on which the Transport Organizer Web UI (CTS_BROWSER) is activated and will run.)
    - WBO_GET_REQ_STRATEGY                 TAGGED
    - WBO_REL_REQ_STRATEGY                 MANUAL
    For quality and production Java system (target systems):
    - CTC                                              1
    - CTS_SYSTEM_TYPE                          JAVA (others for a MDM system)
    - NON_ABAP_SYSTEM                         1
    - COMMUNICATION_SYSTEM:                 (SAPSID of the ABAP communication system (e.g. the domain controller))
    - DEPLOY_WEB_SERVICE                       CTSDEPLOY
    - DEPLOY_DATA_SHARE:
    When this is done correctly, you will see the fields ABAP communication system and client populated in SMSY.
    When ChaRM needs to operate on the non ABAP systems, it will take the RFCs for the communication system and client.
    Best regards,

  • How to create a DB Source system in BW

    Hi Guys,
      Can anybody explain me how to create DB Connect  source system in BW.
    Points will be awarded.
    Thanks,
    Chinna

    Hi Chinna,
    Below are the steps to be followed for the SS creation in BW :
    Prerequisites :
    1.System Number
    2.System IP address
    3.ALEOLTP like userid and password – this is the RFC user ID in the R/3 system. Usually set to communication - must be set to dialog in the R/3 Source System for the duration of the create/restore connection process.  Note: the password must be in capital letters.(If all instances are in unicode system)
    1.At the time of making the connection, the R/3 source system will need to be opened for client independent configuration.
    2.If it is a connection create or restore, the personal userid of the person doing the work must have SM59 access.
    Follow the naming convention which is being used in your system.
    1.     Logon to r/3 source system using the r/3 RFC userid to check that the userid has been set to dialog user. It is mandatory that the r/3 source system userid be setup temporarily as dialog to create the connection. If not contact the requester to have this done before continuing with the next step.
    Note: When re-checking to ensure that the r/3 userid is a dialog user, you may get prompted for new password. Change password, and make a note of the new password. Use this new password in the steps that follow for the r/3 RFC userid.
    2.     Logon to BW system using your own userid.
    3.     Enter transaction RSA1, In Source Systems, right-click on Source Systems as shown below to create new connection.
    4.     In the screen select the appropriate Source System connection type. Suppose your  are creating connection for r/3 instance, so in this case we pick the very first option.
    5.     A popup window will get displayed asking for the necessary information. To fill in the appropriate information in the that screen you need the following information concerning the r/3 source system.
    •     IP address (Application Server) &
    •     System Number
    Get this information for the r/3 source system from the SAP Logon Pad.
    6.     If Parameters have been incorrectly entered  then  the following error message will appear : “Check connection parameters for the source system”.
    7.     Re-check and re-enter correctly. If all is good then You will see the following prompt : Please log on as an administrator in the following screen.”Click green check to continue.
    8.     This will bring you to the r/3 logon screen. Logon using the r/3 RFC id. Once logged on click Check in ‘Check RFC destination’ dialog box.
    9. Consider the r/3 RFC destination screen.
    10. Check to make sure that BW system information (Userid, IP address, System Number etc) is correctly showing in the Technical Settings and Logon/Security tabs. Next do the following,
         Step 1: Enter password for the BW RFC userid id.
         Step 2: Save Settings
         Step 3: From Test Menu , click on authorization. Ensure there are no errors
         Step 4: Back out of screen.
    11.     System may ask you to logon as administrator again. Logon as in Step 10. This time click on Use in ‘Check RFC destination’ dialog box.
    Connection related processing will start up at this time, and continue for a little while (can be a couple minutes or more).
    12.     Subsequently, a dialog box will show up on the screen.
    13. Pick option, Replicate As Well.
    Replication and activation of data sources & transfer structures will begin.
    With the completion of this step you will have successfully established this source system connection. To confirm, right-click on the new source system entry and click on check
    14. If the connection is good, the following message with the source system ID will display at bottom left corner of screen : Source system connection is Ok”.
    Hope this will be helpful to you.
    Thanks & Regards,

  • How to create an activity when system finds duplicate record!!

    Hi CRM Experts,
    I am working on CRM 5.0. We are uploading contact details to CRM through ELM.
    Here My queries are:
    1) How to create An Activity when system finds duplicate record?
    2) By using ELM we can create BP with Activities and BP with Leads. But Here, my scenario is we have to Create BP with leads and Acivities. can any one help me on these areas?
    Thank in Advance.
    Sree

    Hi Sree,
    I can help you with your first query.
    When the system finds a duplicate record then either the system stops working further or proceeds with the error free record.
    So once the duplicate entry is found only the first record will be considered and not the second or the duplicate record.
    Regards,
    Rekha Dadwal
    Kindly reward with points if usefull !!!!

  • Dynadock V system tray icon has vanished

    I have had a Dynadock V since February, 2012. Recently, the system tray icon vanished. Because it's not there, I can't undock to take my laptop somewhere else. I have to shut down the laptop and then I figure it's safe to unplug the dynadock. I've searched for help on the Toshiba website, and all I get is the statement that the icon won't be present unless the computer is connected and a monitor is attached to the dynadock. Well, the computer IS connected and I'm right now watching the monitor connected via the dynadock. But no icon that lets me undock. The users manual clearly says not to disconnect the cable without undocking, and suggests clicking the "show hidden icons button." I've done that, and the icon is not there. Does anybody know what's going on and how to fix it?  Thanks in advance.
    Nancy
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Solution. After messing around with this for way too many hours, I've found a fix. Maybe it can help someone else.
    In Windows Explorer, I found the application that puts the icon in the tray. In my case (Windows 7) it was located at C:/Program Files/TOSHIBA/Dynadock_II/TosDockApp.exe.  Double clicking that put the icon in the tray, but it would be gone the next time I rebooted.
    It needed to be in the Startup folder. I'm guessing that once upon a time it was there and got removed for some unknown reason. (a Windows update?) Right clicked on the application, clicked "Create Shortcut," clicked Yes to placing it on desktop. Then used the Start button, All Programs, and found Startup in the list. Right click, Open. Maneuevered the window so I could see the desktop simultaneously, and dragged the shortcut from the desktop to the list of files on the right side of the Startup window.
    This solution has survived one computer restart, so I'm hoping it will last.
    By the way, copying the application and pasting it in the startup folder didn't work. I had to make the shortcut.
    And Toshiba, if you're listening, I'm still ticked off. Someone in Customer Support should have been able to help me with this. Or it should have been on a troubleshooting page. I've been struggling to find a solution to this problem for months. It wasn't hard -- just not obvious to someone (me) who doesn't work with this software everyday.

  • Skype: no system-tray icon with Arch (+ xfce)

    When I close Skype (the one and only skype window), skype is still running in the background. When I run Zenwalk with xfce, there is a skype icon as part of the taskbar, which indicates that skype is still running in the background. This icon does not pop up in Arch and xfce.
    Here in the forum rdoggsv gave a hint to run "killall skype". However I would prefer to have the system-tray icon (and the right-click to close skype). By the way: skype on debian has this icon as well (see http://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=14874). How can I get this xfce notification icon in Arch, as long as Skype is running?

    Are you sure you have system tray enabled on your xfce panel?  I don't use xfce, but skype shows up correctly in the tray using trayer...  I also remember it working correctly with xfce panel tray in the past so unless the latest version of xfce is buggy it should work without problems.

  • Need to Lock down Keyboard Manager System Tray Icon

    I run 27 MacBooks at a Secondary School. I have them setup for Windows XP Pro (I'll be setting up the Mac OS over then next few weeks but this is a MS Windows School so lets start slow). Hoever I need to be able to disable the "Boot Mac OS" option on the Keyboard Manager. But still have access to Volume and Eject etc Keys.
    Solution: 1
    a .adm file so that I can contol what is avilable to students through Group Policy (disable reboot in Mac, Disable Boot Camp First time Run Help Screen)
    Solution 2
    A Keyboard driver that will make all the Keys work (and remote if possible) but has no System tray Icon
    Solution 3
    Hide the System tray icon (as say an option in the Boot Camp Control Panel which I can already disable through group policy) then all I need to kill is the anoying first time run help screen.
    The help screen is anoying because for each of the 800 student will probably only login into each laptop once each so that will come up every time, because I reimage every 3 months or so.
    The reboot in Mac OS would be no problem if it did not perminatly change to boot order and the Mac OS side boot change back is too complicated for most first time Mac users. The way I will be introducing the Mac OS is telling them about the hold the "option" key trick on boot. hence the dummys will get what they are expecting, and the smarties have the option without afecting the dummys.
    I relise this is a Devolopers thing but I can find no other way to inform them of the need. I dout I am the only System admin needing this.
    Thank You
    Message was edited by: Solus Venator

    Unfortunately no that did not help
    Using msconfig only stops the Keyboard Manager from running. I can do that simply be removing it from the registry with out the annoying msconfig messages. (good for testing though)
    I have also looked into the Hide tray Icon Path but that only tucks it behind a set of “<<”
    And the reboot function does Permanently Change the Boot Order. (Not the boot sector necessarily, The Boot Order) to change it back you need to login into the Mac OS and System Prefs Disk Boot Select the Boot Camp Part and Reboot …… Big Pain in neck.
    The Keyboard Manager icon does not have an eject option… If is needed for the Eject Key to work (and the Volume Mute, Up, Down, Brightness Up, Down. Note it is not Needed for the Play FF Rew Keys they work fine with the Fn Key)
    Here is the test
    With no icon showing, or an icon with no reboot option : Press The Eject Key if the CD Ejects Success, I also need Volume do not care about the others as much
    As Stated this is a Developer( Programmer) oversite and needs them to put in an option to remove the reboot option from the System tray Icon. Removal of the Icon would also be desirable
    Thank You
