Hello,

I \'m trying to be helpfull and post whatever I don\'t like in the latest Amarok . Here goes:

Can there be an option to only show a trayicon and never show amarok in the taskbar? It will save some space, and a user that has it running in his tray, will not have to click on the X-exit button in order to minimize it to tray again.

Winamp does it and its helpful..minimizes back to tray when it loses focus. :whistle:

err?? this is aleady the case!
"show tray icon" is switched on?
should be on default, IIRC.

I _think_ what he means is a "mode" where amarok starts only in the tray, and where amarok moves to "only-tray" after X sec of not beeing interacted with.

look at the KWIN options from the context menu when clicking in the taskbar

Advanced > Special Settings

If you press the tray icon, amarok maximizes. When it looses focus, it stays in the taskbar, it doesn\'t dissappear again and become a tray icon.

If this functionallity can be achieved in the way seb described, I \'m sorry Seb. I didn\'t quite understood what you said.

try
kstart --skiptaskbar --title \'amarok\' amarok

maybe add
--nomenubar --notabbar
or
ksystraycmd --skiptaskbar --title \'amarok\' amarok
