hi there. just installed friday update, icon size issue still here. sorry if i didn't say anything new.

    Aaaaaand the patch with my fixes for @Neumie is now in stable! Also includes a couple other things I found to have issues, and translatable error text (not translated yet). Enjoy!

    serebit, I've got a tooltip placement issue on my system. The Network and Notification icon hover tooltips, on the bottom panel, are placed below the icons (outside the viewport). Volume tooltip however is placed correctly above. See (assuming that the gray line on the bottom right is the top of the tooltip):

    I am not sure if this behavior is new, as I have not used (and have no use of) this tooltip feature for these particular icons.

      The updated system tray is now working nicely after turning the screen back on in stable. It's very nice to have 🙂.

      First of all thanks for the update.

      Now to my story. I've had an issue with the system tray since starting using Solus Budgie: icons from remote applications launched via Citrix Workspace (previously Receiver) appear in black square boxes, wich is visible if the taskbar is transparent, and some of them overlap with another, but after the last update (not sure, but I suppose so), icon from wine application (Radmin Viewer) also has this black box.

      I can totally live with it, just for your information 🙂

        Immortal Could you do me a favor and change the GTK theme to something with a different default panel color, then log out and back in and see if the black squares change to that color?

          serebit Hmm... Seems like it keeps messing icons, but much better in other themes (no black squares) and the one from the wine application is gone after logout/logon even in my current theme (Plata Noir).

          P. S. Sorry for the late reply.

            Necro, but a worthy one: A couple tray updates have landed in Budgie's master branch, soon to be tagged as Budgie v10.5.2. Primarily, these updates will fix an issue with the new tray wherein Wine applications could cause the entire panel to restart or crash, due to adding an invalid icon to the tray.

            Immortal Late, but if I had to guess, it would seem that those icons are of a different type. Let me explain.

            Every icon in the system tray is a separate borderless window, embedded in the tray. Most of these windows support transparent backgrounds, but some of them don't, like the two you're seeing. Without the ability to set a transparent background, the window can't be properly drawn on top of the panel.

            Carbontray, like the old tray, attempts to rectify this by setting the background of the window to the color of the panel. As you've noticed, this works fine if the panel is opaque, but if the panel is transparent then you get those panel-colored squares. Without modification of the application itself, there's nothing I can do on the panel side (that I know of) to force those windows to support transparency.

              serebit I see, thanks for the explanation. It would be fine if the wine issue is fixed, everything else is fine, I can totally live with it. Thanks again for your work and best wishes!

              @Solarmass The text functionality is likely specific to AppIndicator or KStatusNotifierItem support and not the xembed-based system trays.

                Solarmass Most applications are removing AppIndicator support. If there is anything we'd support beyond XEmbed-based system trays, it would be KStatusNotifierItem, but honestly it's not a priority.
