Tray Icon Options |
PA-RUN can show an additional icon in the Notification Area of the Windows Taskbar. The Tray Area or Notification Area is a portion of the Windows taskbar that provides a temporary source for notifications and status. It can also be used to display icons for system and program features that have no presence on the desktop. •Show Tray Icon: If this option is checked then PA-RUN is represented as a small icon in the Tray Area: •Configure Notification Area button: Click this button to bring up an informational dialog which explains the necessary configuration steps:
•Minimize to Tray or Close to Tray: This is a mutually exclusive option (which means that either one or the other can be selected): oIf the Minimize to Tray option is selected (and the above Show Tray Icon option is checked) then MINIMIZING the PA-RUN window with its Minimize title bar button will minimize it to the Tray Area (instead of minimizing it to the Windows Taskbar). oIf the Close to Tray option is selected (and the above Show Tray Icon option is checked) then CLOSING the PA-RUN window (either with the window's Close button or with the PA-RUN Close button) minimizes PA-RUN to the Windos Tray Area (instead of closing PA-RUN). This is a very useful setting as it avoids the accidental closing of PA-RUN. •Minimize to Tray on RUN: If this option is checked then PA-RUN will be minimized to the Tray Area whenever a program is executed from the Program watch edit-field (e.g. with the RUN button). •Minimize to Tray on CommandLine Execution: If this option is checked then PA-RUN will be minimized to the Tray Area whenever a program is executed from the Program/Parameters edit-field. •Show a message when PA-RUN is minimized to the Notification Area: If this option is checked then a temporary translucent message box (which disappears after a few seconds) is displayed near the Notification Area of the Windows Taskbar whenever PA-RUN has been minimized to the Tray Area: |
