pystray icon doesn’t work inside snap.
Here my code, you can clone, do snapcraft, snap install tray_1_....snap --dangerous --devmode , and snap run tray , but it doesn’t work, doesn’t show the tray icon.
If you try to do ./tray.py it will work.
Am I missing something?
Some interface? connection? plug?
My OS host is Ubuntu 20.04
tray.py:
#!/usr/bin/env python3
# coding=utf-8
from tkinter import *
from pystray import Icon as icon, Menu as menu, MenuItem as item
import pystray
from PIL import Image
import sys
window = Tk()
def quit_window():
sys.exit()
def hide_window():
window.withdraw()
items = []
items.append(pystray.MenuItem('Quit', quit_window))
image=Image.open('./app.png')
icon=pystray.Icon("name", image, "title", items)
icon.run()
window.protocol('WM_DELETE_WINDOW', hide_window)
window.mainloop()
