Description Benjamin Creekmore 2006-04-30 20:05:23 UTC 
Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.5.2)
Installed from:    Debian stable Packages
OS:                Linux

minimize to system tray button should be on every title bar and on taskbar options (when you right-click) on a minimized or non-minimized taskbar entry. (INTEGRATION!)

The system tray is not the taskbar. Applications must support system tray integration in the first place.

There are external tools (KDocker?) which allows to remove application from taskbar and place its icon into "system notification area".
There is kwin window/application setting "skip taskbar button".
There is kmenu application option "place application icon to notification area", but it removes application from taskbar only when user clicks on that icon, not when clicks "minimize" button.
There is ksystraycmd console application for the similar purpose.

Now that all should be integrated.

For me, I'd be pretty happy with possibility to set "minimize to tray" in kwin settings, as I like to always dock many applications. This way, developers have no need to write docking code for each and every application.

But an option for a single application instance will be good too.
