Or even better it should be the same selector as the individual viability selectors but for all entries. [Always hidden][^] - [1] Show when relevant - [2] Always shown - [3] Always hidden - [4] Disabled Can you describe the use case? I like to use a minimal almost empty panel. I find the system tray and any of those icons distracting. For a while I simply removed the system tray entirely from the panel to continue with my minimal theme. However without the system tray active app processes, some software does not work perfectly. For example: - Without the Sound system tray app icon my laptop function volume keys don't work. Fn+VolumeUp & Fn+VolumeDown. - Without the Slack system tray app icon the entire Slack electron application will hang and freeze from time to time. Slack seems to require that system tray app icon for notification integration. So in order for those features to work I have the system tray in my minimal panel but I always want them in a hidden state. I never want to see them. Obviously my workaround has been to manually select each and apply always hide. Life goes on but it would be nice just to select one place even for that setting to apply to new installed apps later.

OK, fair enough. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 448007 *** |
Created attachment 151208 [details] Simple prototype. System Tray has a global "Always show all entries" checkbox selection. I wish the System Tray had the reverse where I can select "Always hide all entries" checkbox selection. [] Always show all entries - Current [] Always hide all entries - New feature
