IconFile & StayOnTray Tweaks Not Working

My XYplorer.ini file looks like this:

Code: Select all

StartupMinimized=2
MinimizeToTray=0
MinimizeToTrayOnXClose=1
; Tweak: set to 1 to keep the tray icon visible always
StayOnTray=1
; Tweak: set to 1 to get nagged by an 'Exit XYplorer now?' prompt.
PromptOnXClose=0
; Tweak: custom app icon
IconFile=xy-orange.ico
I searched the Beta Version topic for usage notes, but apparently the search won't look in the code boxes for matches. For the icon file I put the icon in the application folder, in the data folder and I tried referencing it with full path information as well as the relative path shown in my code snippet. I tried the full path with and without quotes. I'm running Windows 8.1 x64.

Any ideas?

Thanks,
Jeff

I have this

Code: Select all

IconFile=<xyicons>\XY.ico
and it works fine. Try putting your icon in <xyicons> and let us now.

Thank you. That worked. :)

I still can't get the "StayOnTray" tweak to work in Windows 8.1 x64. The minimize to tray and x-close to tray both work as expected. :veryconfused:

Cheers,
Jeff

I see no problem here. What exactly doesn't work there on your system?

I set StayOnTray=1

When I start XYplorer, in admin or in user mode, the XY icon doesn't appear in the tray. If I minimize XY, then the icon appears in the tray, as expected. If I x-close XY, then the icon appears in the tray, as expected. If I restore XY from its minimized or x-closed states, then the tray icon stays visible. It's only upon starting XY that the tweak doesn't work.

Thanks,
Jeff

Yes, true, I can confirm. Never paid much attention to that, to be honest.
