firetray's Issues

RFE: New messages count

It would be great if firetray would support the display of the number of new messages similarly to what is proposed for the unread messages.

I understand that this RFE has been discussed here but the focus was not really on the count and the issue has been closed:
#13

Icon is not shown [solved => can be deleted]

In debian wheezy, after upgrading icedove to 10.0.3-3 the tray bar icon is not shown anymore. I tried the current git version, but it is still not shown. There are no errors shown in the log so that it is unclear to me why this is happening?

[edit]sorry, for the noise: after installing the git version I messed around with the configuration[/edit]

Ench. Req.: Thunderbird tray icon shouldn't default to box with a numbers on it

Pretty much SUBJ tells it all. I've got a bunch of mail accounts and my main mail account is subscribed to a bunch of different mailing lists like "kernel-dev", "openwrt-dev", e.t.c. Mailing lists generate huge amount of traffic and thus huge amount of "new unread" messages. Due to this fact it isn't fun to look at square box in KDE system tray displaying blurry number like 17578. I'd prefer the Thunderbird default icon to be displayed there instead. Also it would be cool to have configuration option and resp. functionality to display two icons in tray, one "general" and another one showing up on new mail reception. There was something like this with 0.3.x versions of Firetray when it's been displaying the amount of newly received messages in the "tray icon box" instead of the total number of unread messages.

Anyways, thanks for your work, you made the things rock!

firefox 13.0 double click doesn't restore window after s2ram

When I suspend my system and wake it up, I can only restore the window by an right-click and selecting the appropriate tab.

After update of addon to version 0.4.0b3 thunderbirds starts with low dimensions

I tested it, if I have checked that application should start application hidden to tray, after I click on firetray to restore it, it starts with little dimensions 30px x 60px nad every time must be resized. If I want to resize it, it is only allowed to resize it to using left bottom corner of application.

Using Kubuntu 11.10

new mail not shown when minimized in 0.4.1 (pop3)

Hi,

I've been using firetray for ages and have been very happy with it. I just changed to thunderbird 10 and needed to upgrade firetray accordingly, to 0.4.1. Since then, the icon does not indicate any more when there is new mail in the minimized state, even though firetray is set up this way. I'm using linux and pop3 email, and thunderbird is set up to check every minute for new email, and download messages from the server when pressing "get mail". Previous versions (up to 0.3.5) used to faithfully show the number of new messages on the server, but the new version only shows that there is new email after pressing "get mail", which defeats the purpose, as I'd like to be notified by the icon when and how much new email has arrived on the server. I am not sure if this is a thunderbird or a firetray issue, but any ideas on how to resolve it would be greatly appreciated!

RFE: Make hide-window-on-icon-click optional (xfce-activate)

I use multiple desktops, thus never really minimize my apps. Instead of hiding/unhiding Thunderbird, I'd like to be able to jump to the correct desktop and bring Thunderbird to the front (if necessary) on systray icon click (this was actually behavior of MozTrayBiff).

Improvement idea: Shell script execution on new mails / read mails

Hi,

I don't know where to put this, so I decided to open a bug although it is not a real bug.

I have got an usb email notifier (http://www.dreamcheeky.com/webmail-notifier) as a present for my birthday.
With the driver for linux it is possible to turn the notifier on and off via shell scripts / python scripts.

Now I had the idea it would be really great if you could add a possibility to run a user defined shell/python script on the new mail event (e.g. to turn the notifier on) and on the "all messages read" event (e.g. to turn it off).
I think there are a lot of different usage possibilities.

I'm not quite sure where I would have to add it to the code, otherwise I would try to add it myself.

Kind regards,

David

implement instant-messaging notifications

asked by rmtk

Some preliminary remarks:

• it should be easy to be notified from "new messages" (observe topic== 'unread-im-count-changed', see http://mxr.mozilla.org/comm-central/source/mail/components/im/content/chat-messenger-overlay.js).
• "new messages" = private messages or channels where my nick appears
• don't know how to be notified from user status changes (apart from topic== 'new-text')
• we'll probably have to use a second icon for IM, for keeping track of new mail messages and new IM messages at the same time

Restore on "Launch"

When you open Thunderbird when it is already open it raises itself. However, when it is minimised to try with this app the window is not raised. It would be nice to have the app restore and raise itself.

[Feature] Select which folders to include

Currently it's only possible to select which accounts or special folders are included in the new-message-count.
As already mentioned in Issue 105 on the old issue list, this is not as useful as selecting folders to include.

I myself am subscribed to various mailing list and don't want them to be included in the counter in my icon. These mailing lists each have their own folder they get filtered in. IMHO this is a very common practice and affects many users.

Firetray doesn't save selected tray icon for new messages

Hi,

I found this bug in version 0.4.0a5. If you select a different tray icon for new messages (e.g. the newmail icon) it works perfectly until you restart.
After a restart the default selection (display unread message count) is selected again.

Would be great, if you could fix this issue.

Thanks,

David

minimised to tray broken in Ubuntu

I think the latest update has sadly broken Firetray - whenever I minimize Thunderbird to the tray I can't restore it to desktop by any means. I have to instead restart Thunderbird in safemode and disable the add-on to access the program. Ubuntu 11.10, Thunderbird 11.

Starting hidden to the tray does not work

Hi,

yesterday I have updated to FireTray 0.4.1 and discovered that FireTray does not hide to the tray when I start it with the corresponding option set.

FireTray 0.4.1 (with version 0.4.0b3 it was working like a charm)
Thunderbird 12.0.1
Arch Linux
GTK 1.2.10

When I start the program there are no errors in the error console, but I can see following warning:

Warning: WARN firetray: setVisibility=false
Source File: resource://firetray/linux/FiretrayWindow.jsm
Line: 307

This warning is printed every time I hide or restore the window, except it changes to "Warning: WARN firetray: setVisibility=true" on restore.

I have also built the debug version of FireTray and got following print out to console:

Tray icon is invisible and not clickable on Cinnamon/Ubuntu 12.04

As per subject, although I do realise it's a few days short of being released, I believe the issue ought to be known.

Close window hides to tray option, can not close individual windows

To reproduce problem :
Open Firefox (with firetray extension enabled)
Firefox menu > Open New Window (do it 3 times)
Now you have 4 windows
Close individually all of them
Right clic on Tray Icon. I shows 4 Firefox icons
Click icon to restore, opens the 4 windows
There is no way to close the extra 3 windows any more.

System information
Firetray 0.4.1
Firefox 11
Ubuntu 11.04

If you have the "close window hides to tray" option set. You can no longer close individual windows, actually terminate them.

Some applications open new windows from links, to show some detailed information, PDF view, etc.
Some times you open a new window by mistake or on purpose.

When you close this additional or "pop up" windows, all get hidden instead of being actually closed (or terminated).

So after clicking 20 links you have 20 hidden windows in the tray.

There needs to be a way to distinguish between closing the main window or the "children ones", or an option to that states :

"Only main window hides to tray". Being the main window the one that was open first of all, others, the one that opened at start up. I know that there is no actual main window in a Browser, but the concept of using the very first one opened at start up, as the main window, is something that intuitively we use. It would be like the concept of the tabs. You can close them individually, but when you arrive to the last one that one you can no longer close, that would be like your main tab.

A second similar logic is, if there is more than 1 existing window, it closes. If this is the last (or only window) then it hides to tray.
The option would be : "hide to tray only last window on close". Or "Close all windows on close, hide to tray when only 1".

I have never programmed an extension, browsed the code but could not find function that handles the close action.
If you could point me to the proper function, I think I could implement the second logic, is fairly straight forward. And have done it with other extensions, add a few lines.

Good luck.

Pass data to Called Shell Script

See: #33
See: #33 (comment)

It would be nice if the shell script could somehow access things such as number of new messages and information about them. (To, From, subject)

hiding window with click on tray icon

Hi,

I'm using firetray-0.4.0b1.xpi right now and I couldn't find any problems at the moment but I've got an idea to improve firetray.
It would be nice, if clicking on the tray icon would hide the window.

Kind regards,

David

Half-window after find out Thunderbird

I use Ubuntu 11.04 with Thunderbird 7.0 and FireTray 0.4.0a2

When Thunderbird is hidden in the systray and you want to find out, it gets half window instead of in the entire window.

Can't disable "Handle mouse scroll on tray icon"

Using 0.4.0b2, I find that the preference for "Handle mouse scroll on tray icon" doesn't actually disable the action when unchecked. It does disable the controls in the dialog for changing the scroll direction, but the scroll wheel still works on the icon.

This is with Thunderbird 9.0 on Fedora 16 (which hasn't rolled out 10.0 yet).

Unread messages in "saved search folders" are counted, leading to a wrong unread message count in firetray

I have setup some saved search folders in thunderbird (e.g. all unread messages). Firetray displays an unread message count which is the addition of the actual unread message count and the unread message count in my saved search folders. The firetray tray count is therefore wrong.

Clicking on a link in a non-browser application (e.g. thunderbird) normally opens a new tab in firefox and brings it in front/focus on the same desktop. My suggestion is to stick to this behavior even if firefox is hidden.

Tray icon tooltip being displayed at a wrong place

Pretty much the SUBJ. When I mouse over the FireTray's TB icon I've got tray icon tooltip saying "thunderbird" popup way out of position: instead being near the icon/mouse position and slightly to the top popup shows up far to the left and a bit more-than-would-be-optimal to the top.

Window very very small after restoring from tray

Hi,

I'm resently facing the issue that the window is displayed to small after restoring it from the tray.
I would estimate it is about 100x10 pixels. It is possible to resize the window, but it is very hard.

I'm using "firetray-0.4.0b2-new-messages.xpi" on Arch Linux.

Kind regards,

David

Counting unread messages problem with uncommon IMAP folder structure

My system:
Debian Wheezy x86
Thunderbird 12.0.1
FireTray 0.4.2

---

First of all, thank you very much to foudfou and the other contributors for this rewrite of a great extension. You've done a great job so far!

I've been noticing a small bug with accounts that have this uncommon IMAP folder structure: Everything is a subfolder of Inbox, including Drafts, Sent, Junk, etc., see this screenshot:

--> http://i.imgur.com/9KuGb.png

(Don't ask me why one of my ISPs has this uncommon type of structure -- I'm not able to change it unfortunately. Maybe I should ask them if they could change it for me...)

For the sake of completeness, in my view a common structure (which doesn't cause the problem described in the following paragraph) should look like this :

--> http://i.imgur.com/zWOtW.png

Anyway, the problem is that -- although I have, e.g., unchecked Drafts in the included special folders list -- unread messages in this subfolder are still counted. There is one restriction though: The counter is not updated until a new message comes in or I mark a message as unread in any of the folders that are not in the excluded folders list. Same applies for the inverse direction, i.e., if I mark the message in the Drafts subfolder as read again, the counter won't be updated (decreased by one) until something has changed in the other folders that are not in the excluded folders list.

If I check Drafts in the included special folders list, the event for updating the message count fires immediately when messages inside Drafts are marked as unread. Hence, in this case, the Drafts folder is recognized as such although it's still a subfolder of Inbox.

I've already had a look at the source code but I'm still not sure what causes this bug.

Any clues?

FireTray counts messages twice on GMail

I'm using several GMail accounts with Thunderbird and FireTray and FireTray counts every unread message twice because of their presence in "All Mail".

I do have "All Mail" selected as the archival location so, at least, I'd expect my intent to be made clear to FireTray by having "Archive" deselected in "Included special folders".

This happens with every version of FireTray I've ever used from 0.3.x (and possibly older) pre-ctypes versions right up through 0.4.1 from AMO and 2e65e07 in the themable-icons branch.

From my perspective, there are two bugs here:

1. FireTray isn't omitting a custom Archive location when I have Archive set to be hidden from the count.
2. FireTray is vulnerable to double-counting messages when the IMAP server allows one message to appear in multiple places.

The latter may or may not be soluble. You'd have to see whether GMail's IMAP implementation exposes any kind of message ID that's unique across different folders.

0.4.2 : double click at tray icon no longer restores FF window

at least here with 10.0.4 only the right button works now

Thunderbird restores to original desktop, show on all desktops fail

Formerly, with the xpi versions, clicking the tray icon restored the Thunderbird window to the active desktop. This was really convenient, because after checking the mail and minimizing TB I was at the same place where I have left.

The current beta in contrast restores TB to the original desktop, so I always have to switch desktop in addition to activating TB. Or if activate window is checked, than I have to switch back to my desktop where I was working. This is quite annoying.
This behaviour itself is maybe not a bug, but an ergonomic problem (quite annoying and important I think), but I hope it will be changed in future versions.

Regarding this issue I have found another issue. I have tried to set TB window as show on all desktop, but in this case after the first activation you can no longer hide the window., only minimize works.

RFE: Indicate both unread and new messages

It would be great if firetray would support showing both unread and new messages in the tray.

TB 13.0 is crashing on startup

Thunderbird 13.0 is crashing on startup if both FireTray 0.4.2 and Lightning 1.5.1 (with Google Calendar) are installed.

Start minimized doesn't work in Gnome-shell 3.4.1

Thunderbird 12.0.1
Ubuntu Precise 64b
Gnome-shell 3.4.1

If I active the option "Start application hidden to tray", the application is opened but the icon isn't showed in system tray, then I can't open Thunderbird.

Restore from the command line

Hi,
Steps to reproduce the problem (on gnome desktop):

1. With this add-on installed, minimize the thunderbird window; so that it goes to notification area.
2. Try to open it using
   2.1 Alt+F2 -> thunderbird
   2.2 gnome-terminal -> thunderbird
   2.3 Application -> Internet -> Thunderbird
   2.4 Or any other way of opening thunderbird from gnome.

Observation:
Since thunderbird is already running, it tries to restore, rather than opening a new window. However, since the window is hidden using this addon, it is not visible.

Please make a provision to restore the window, if thunderbird command is issued while thunderbird is already running & minimized to notification area.

RFE: New Messages Indicator (aka Biff)

I routinely have accounts with thousands of unread messages. Thus, triggering icon changes and displaying tooltips based on unread message counts is useless to me.

Essentially I want to exactly replicate the behavior of the old and now-defunct MozTrayBiff extension.

I did some poking around, and I found that Thunderbird offers an internal "biff" mechanism. It appears that a similar method to what I am proposing existed in the XPCOM version of this extension, but I don't see any such references in the js-ctypes version even in the latest git master. I also discovered that Thunderbird exposes a function for grabbing the number of new messages in addition to the usual unread message count.

Here's a bit of duct-tape code that modifies FireTrayMessaging.jsm to do more or less what I want...

In the OnItemIntPropertyChanged() function, I added:

if (property.toString() === "BiffState") {
    firetray.Messaging.updateBiff(oldValue, newValue);
}

I then created a new function to change the icon appropriately upon biff state changes:

updateBiff: function(oldValue, newValue) {
    if ( ( (oldValue === 2) || (oldValue === 1) ) && (newValue === 0) ) {
        firetray.Handler.setIconImage(firetray.Handler.FILENAME_NEWMAIL);
    } else {
        firetray.Handler.setIconImageDefault();
    }
}

Finally, within the updateUnreadMsgCount() function, I altered the polling mechanism to calculate the number of new unread messages, not the total of all unread messages:

//this._unreadMsgCount += folder.getNumUnread(true); // includes subfolders
this._unreadMsgCount += folder.getNumNewMessages(true); // includes subfolders

Thunderbird 13.0 linux duplicate window bug

I just upgraded Thunderbird to 13.0 and after the first time I click on the tray icon to open TB any clicks after that creates another TB window so I have 2 TB windows all the time. Follow ?

Tray icon not themable

On my system, I've set up an icon theme which results in all of my tray icons looking like carved depressions in the panel which only show color when attention is desired. (eg. Dropbox only showing color when syncing, Pidgin only showing color when a message is waiting, etc.)

However, FireTray seems to have hard-coded the colorful thunderbird icon, so I can't readily replace it with the "no new mail" icon I want.

The proper way to handle tray icons on Linux is to let GtkStatusIcon do the work. I'm not familiar with Firefox's GTK+ API wrapper and I don't know how to test any modification I'd make to your code, but I can give you an example of how to do it in PyGTK:

import gtk, gio

icon_theme = gtk.icon_theme_get_default()
icon_theme.append_search_path("/the/resolved/path/to/your/fallback/icons")

ICON_DEFAULT = gio.ThemedIcon(["indicator-messages", "applications-email-panel", "thunderbird"])
ICON_NEWMAIL = gio.ThemedIcon(["indicator-messages-new", "mail-message-new"])

statusicon = gtk.status_icon_new_from_gicon(ICON_DEFAULT)

if True: # Replace with the test for new messages
    statusicon.set_from_gicon(ICON_NEWMAIL)
else:
    statusicon.set_from_gicon(ICON_DEFAULT)

gtk.main() # Yes, this snippet will actually run

Here are some of the reasons you want to let GtkStatusIcon do as much of the work as possible:

• The active icon theme and required icon size might change when you least expect it. If given a GtkThemedIcon or set using an icon name, GtkStatusIcon will handle loading new icon files as appropriate.
• That concise example does all the necessary error handling. If it can't find any matching icons, it'll use the system's "missing icon" image.
• When using GtkThemedIcon or an icon name, GTK+ will figure out the file extension for you and will support every image format GdkPixbuf was compiled with. (Which typically means, at least, SVG, PNG, GIF, and XPM)

As for the fallback icons that you'd distribute in your XPI, you're technically supposed to reproduce the directory structure from /usr/share/icons inside the folder you feed to icon_theme.append_search_path but I couldn't get it to work with the standard "hicolor" fallback theme, so I'm relying on an old GTK+ compatibility feature where it will also check for matching icons directly inside the path you feed it.

bookmark dialog not working

the bookmark dialog doesn't work with firetray-4.0.aX enabled. tried with a4 and 5 versions.

Raise upon Clicking Tray Icon

Currently, if you click on the tray icon when thunderbird is non-active it hides that window. It would be nice to have a setting that would raise inactive windows instead of hiding them. (If they are active they get hidden as normal).

Number of unread messages do not decrease when e-mail is junk

Thunderbird 14
FireTray 0.4.2
Ubuntu 12.04 running KDE

When e-mail is received and it is automatically moved into Junk folder by Thunderbird, counter in tray icon shows 1. Thunderbird shows that there is 1 unread e-mail in junk folder. When I click on that e-mail, Thuderbird unread message counter on Junk box disappears, but one in FireTray stays at 1.
I then sent another e-mail to myself. It appeared in my input box, but FireTray still shows counter as 1. After I read my test e-mail, counter disappeared.

So, looks like, counter is not updated when junk mail is received and read.

add keyboard shortcuts to handle minimize to tray

There is an hard-coded Shift-Meta-W shortcut to hide all windows, but none to restore.

Cannot use Unity launcher to restore Thunderbird

Hi,
I have Thunderbird set as the third item on my Unity launcher, and can hence use Super-3 to launch it. After minimising Thunderbird with FireTray, this shortcut no longer works. Neither do the other options mentioned in issue #25 work either.

Also, if I try to use the Super-3 shortcut with Thunderbird minimised, wait for it to fail, and then click the tray icon to really restore the window, I find the menus in the menubar have disappeared!

(FYI, the "MinimizeToTray revived" add-on still allows the Super-3 shortcut to work. Also, FWIW, I did not run into issue #22).

Thunderbird hidden by upper windows on restore from tray

After click on firetray icon, thunderbird restores from minimized status, but not appears on top of all windows.
I would prefer, if after click on icon, thunderbird becomes active window on top of all applications.

Wrong number of unread messages

I have 3 accounts, and even though I read all mails I have sometimes 1 unread message. I looked through all views of folders but it is all read. So I tried to exclude Local folders from accounts and it disappeared. Unfortunately it came back, so I re-included Local folders and the counter went back to 0.
I think there must be some weird counter somewhere and I "reset" it by enabling/disabling Local Folders (or perhaps any account).

Show the number of unread messages in the tray icon

Hi,

please bring it back the amount of unread messages in the tray icon, as now there's not an easy way of checking are there unread messages in a thunderbird inbox (at least on Debian Squeeze with TB 7.0 and firetray 0.4.0a2)

icon scaling with KDE

What steps will reproduce the problem?

1. select display message count in the Mail preferences
2. select display newmail icon (or display custom icon)
3. select display message count again

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
The message count is displayed in the tray icon, but with a wrong size:
Switching newmail icon -> unread message count => icon (16x16) isn't up-scaled
Switching custom icon -> unread message count => icon too large (32x32) isn't down-scaled

What version of the extension (FireTray) are you using?
v0.4.0b2

What application (Firefox, Thunderbird, ...) and which version are you using?
Thunderbird 9.0 (amd64 build) from mozilla-team's Ubuntu PPA
Thunderbird 10.0 (x86) Ubuntu

On what distribution, version and architecture (x86 vs amd64)?
Ubuntu 11.04 (amd64) using kde 4.7.2
Ubuntu 11.10 x86 with KDE 4.7.

Please provide any additional information below.
It looks like a KDE bug. See for ex.:

Firefox+Firetray in KDE ubuntu 12.04

Hi...

If firetray for TB is just perfectly integrated and useful in KDE (through desktops and activities) it may be not the same with FireFox...

As long as there is only one window open for firefox, it behaves as expected :

a- minimize or close gets the FF icon in sytray
b- click the icon re-open the window on the current desktop (and THAT is great)
c- and right-click you can quit FF.

But if the main window of FF has opened a secondary window (any dialog-box or page...) then :

a- ...gets ONE icon in systray - should not be one by opened window ?
b- ...re-open all previously active windows - it seems natural
c- ...quit ALL the windows in once meaning that on next re-opening of FF one will have as many instances of FF as they were previously active windows before quitting - which can quick become pretty annoying.

In my mind and on y pc it's very clear - hope my words are too.

thunderbird starts up with a too small window

since version 0.4.2 it is only about 200x200 dots in its site. Previously it started with something like 800x600 at an almost stable Gentoo Linux.

Custom tray icon not used after upgrade to 0.4.0b2

After upgrading to 0.4.0b2, my custom tray icon isn't being used. It is still selected in preferences, but the default blue TB icon is in the tray.

I'm on the TB beta channel (currently 10.0), but the custom tray icon worked with the beta in the previous version of Firetray.

TB + Firetray + Ubuntu/Unity 12.04 = menu items disappear from panel

Hello,

On first opening of TB the menu items (file, edit, tools a.s.o.) appear in the top panel.

As soon as I "reduce" or "close" TB using FireTray, the next re-openings of TB won't show any menu items any longer.

(Sorry for my cold english)

Do U have the same behavior ?
