📄 Description

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
