Hello,
thanks for great application!
It would be great to have the possibility to minimize to tray sometimes in the future!
Thanks

Hi,

Unfortunately the cross-platform GUI toolkit I use, fltk, does not support the notion of a system tray icon.
However, you could use this workaround as described in the wiki here

I have added a toy project to the fltk-rs-demos repo which uses certain features of the native-windows-gui crate to do that.
There are 2 problems:

• Conditional compilation.
• win32 tray apps require that they be the main application (handling the main thread). Which further complicates the conditional compilation part.

Thanks, very nicely done!
But I'm really looking for a cross-platform solution, and after looking at https://github.com/qdot/systray-rs I decided to leave it for the time being.

Sure. I'll also check out systray-rs
