plasma systray, 4.2
Submitted by srlinuxx on Thu, 11/20/2008 - 09:32.

So I've talked abut the system tray in 4.2 a few times recently, though mostly in passing. Today we hit a new milestone which marks the system tray area being feature complete for 4.2 (though not defect free .. yet!):

The white arrow on the edge is the expander: click on it and hidden icons show up. If you have no hidden system tray icons then the expander isn't shown.
You can see a progress meter for a file copy in there as well. Application jobs stack up there, as do system notifications. They automatically hide within reasonable times, are fully themable, support user interaction (such as pause, stop, resume, open, etc. buttons) and, since they are Extenders, can be detached and put elsewhere.
