Add Minimize to Tray and Tray Icon #10368

leonMSFT · 2021-06-08T19:22:39Z

A brief summary of the behavior of the tray icon:

There will only ever be one tray icon representing all windows.
Left-Click on a Tray Icon brings up the MRU window.
Right-Click on a Tray Icon brings up a Context Menu:

Focus Terminal
----------------
Windows --> Window ID 1 - <unnamed window>
            Named Window
            Named Window Again

Focus Terminal will bring up the MRU window.
Clicking on any of the Window "names" in the submenu will summon the window.

Settings Changes

Two new global settings are introduced: alwaysShowTrayIcon and minimizeToTray. Here's a chart explaining the behavior with the two settings.

	`alwaysShowTrayIcon:true`	`alwaysShowTrayIcon:false`
`minimizeToTray:true`	tray icon is always shown. minimize button will hide the window.	tray icon is always shown. minimize button will hide the window.
`minimizeToTray:false`	tray icon is always shown.	tray icon is not shown ever.

Closes #5727

Make an "AlwaysShowTrayIcon" option so people can control if they want it in their tray or not by default.

This should be a requirement. So many applications provide this option that it should be considered a defacto standard (like Xterm).

(I also personally like seeing all my tray icons. If I don't want to see one, I'll close the application instead, usually from left clicking on the icon, if it's supported, which it usually is.)

Yep, there's already a whole spec with a section devoted to this idea.

zadjii-msft · 2021-07-21T15:46:43Z

I've introduced a new keybinding also named minimizeToTray for convenience in case users perfer to minimize with a keybinding instead of having to click on the minimize button. Upon activation, the currently focused window will become hidden.

wait uh, I don't think we need this. Win+down will minimize a window

Ah crap I didn't even know about this shortcut 😅
Ok so with this shortcut, the user can minimize to tray with the keyboard as long as minimizeToTray = true.
What about users who have minimizeToTray = false, alwaysShowTrayIcon = true? They may not want all minimize actions to minimizeToTray, but they'd likely want some way of sending the window to the tray considering they want the icon there. Perhaps it should be a system menu item? Or maybe it should be a tray icon menu item? 🤔

Hmm. Interesting. Okay, I'm convinced. I kinda think it should be a separate PR, but it's already here so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

zadjii-msft

Okay most of these are just notes to self as I read the code. Mostly just indicators of where I might have been confused as I was following the logic.

I think at this point I'm mostly blocking on the "add a try/catch here" one.

I don't know how I feel about the minimize to tray action, but I don't feel like blocking that element of it.

This is ∞% better without all the ifdefs, thanks for that ☺️

+    {
+#if TIL_FEATURE_TRAYICON_ENABLED
+        if (_settings.GlobalSettings().MinimizeToTray() || _settings.GlobalSettings().AlwaysShowTrayIcon())


Wait so if they don't have either of these features on, then this will do nothing. I thought the point of this action was to allow minimizing a window to the tray even when neither setting is on?

right okay so this action only works when there is a tray icon. Right, cause otherwise the window would just disappear into the void. And we're not doing any sort of per-window tracking of "this window wanted to be able to minimize to the tray, so we must have a tray icon".

IDK I still feel weird about this action and almost wish it was a separate PR to review/discuss

Yup, pretty much I don't want to let the user do be able to minimize if there won't be a tray icon. The idea was to be able to minimize when minimizeToTray = false, alwaysShowTrayIcon = true.

The per-window tracking would definitely be useful especially for big sweeping actions like "summon all" - I'll add it to the list.

I'll also split this off into its own PR and we could discuss some more there - makes the PR smaller too 😉

Don't we need to make sure to hop onto the BG thread at the top of this (and _HideTrayIconRequested)? Usually the COM x-proc calls end up throwing exceptions/gracefully doing nothing when called on the main thread.

Is this really never called on the main thread?

_IsQuakeWindowChanged - pretty sure that can be on the main thread... unsure tho

_windowManager.ShowTrayIconRequested okay this one's on the bg thread

Hmm I've never observed it doing weird stuff, I'll throw it on a resume_background in the beginning of the functions just to be safe.

wrap this boy up in a try/catch

I'm actually doing the _forAllPeasantsIgnoringTheDead thing for this little snippet, that has error handling in it so I should be good right?

Oh yep, you're good

+void TrayIcon::DestroyTrayIcon()

Should we also do a

_trayIconData.reset();

here, like we used to?

I was intending for this function to be more of a RemoveIconFromTray instead of a "destroy" (I'll rename). I wanted the actual "destruction" of the tray icon to be when AppHost sets its _trayIcon ptr to null, and if it ever wanted to get a new tray icon, it should instantiate a new one.

Okeydokey, good enough for me

…ult because I think it looks nicer

the gsl::narrow vs gsl::narrow_cast thing is a bit concerning, so I just want to double check that

just kidding that's not the right one either

this doesn't break the defapp server?

oh shit good catch

Some followups to #10368: - Accidentally reverted a defapp change where the Monarch should not by default register itself as a handoff server. - Destroy the tray icon if we're a monarch otherwise if we're a quake window we request the monarch to hide the icon.
