## TRAY
|
|
|
|
Swaybar provides a system tray where third-party applications may place icons.
|
|
The following commands configure the tray.
|
|
|
|
The _button_ argument in all cases is a platform-specific button code. On Linux
|
|
you can find a list of these at linux/input-event-codes.h.
|
|
|
|
*activate\_button* <button>
|
|
Sets the button to be used for the _activate_ (primary click) tray item
|
|
event. The default is BTN\_LEFT (0x110).
|
|
|
|
*context\_button* <button>
|
|
Sets the button to be used for the _context menu_ (right click) tray item
|
|
event. The default is BTN\_RIGHT (0x111).
|
|
|
|
*secondary\_button* <button>
|
|
Sets the button to be used for the _secondary_ (middle click) tray item
|
|
event. The default is BTN\_MIDDLE (0x112).
|
|
|
|
*tray\_output* none|all|<output>
|
|
Sets the output that the tray will appear on or none. Unlike i3bar, swaybar
|
|
is able to show icons on any number of bars and outputs without races.
|
|
The default is _all_.
|
|
|
|
*tray\_padding* <px> [px]
|
|
Sets the pixel padding of the system tray. This padding will surround the
|
|
tray on all sides and between each item. The default value for _px_ is 2.
|
|
|
|
*icon\_theme* <name>
|
|
Sets the icon theme that sway will look for item icons in. This option has
|
|
no default value, because sway will always default to the fallback theme,
|
|
hicolor.
|
|
|
|
