Feature request: show tray icon and unread new message badge on OS X menu bar. about desktop HOT 36 CLOSED

Sorry, my fault.
I came here googling Telegram notification bar, I didn't notice this was about mattermost.

Thanks! Sorry for the misleading question :(

@yuya-oc Here is a new screenshot with the number 20.

👍 for the same on Linux. I'd be fine with the red/green dot indication that Slack uses :)

from desktop.

Please make sure this is an option, as I like my menubar to be uncluttered and free of distractions.

from desktop.

@besil This is neither Telegram Desktop nor Telegram Mobile, this is about Mattermost Desktop.

from desktop.

Oops, I came here via google and figured that you guys are somehow related. Sorry for the trouble!

from desktop.

@harryi3t Yes. Press cmd+, and enable the option.

from desktop.

👍 same for Windows tray
and a option to hide the taskbar icon (see #43)

from desktop.

👍

Let me know if you want me to resubmit any of my pull request (#46)

from desktop.

Yes it's just a request, hope @yuya-oc or you guys or someone else can code it ;)

from desktop.

I think OS X menu bar is too small to show the number. So I'm thinking about the way to indicate it.
In Windows, I could use colored dot, but OS X requires a template image (black only). Do you have any ideas?

from desktop.

Numbered badge on the menu bar icon is acceptable. As I know there are some other apps have supported this feature by using small size font for the badge, that looks nice, almost a native style.

from desktop.

Are there any example screenshots? I want to know nice size.

from desktop.

Will do it when I am back to my computer later :)

Menu bar icon would be very nice! +1
@yuya-oc Here is a screenshot of Telegram on OS X (original size, non-retina, full-hd)

from desktop.

Thank you, @nItroFreeZer . Do you know about two-digit number?

from desktop.

@yuya-oc This might help: cadecairos@c1ea367

Practically it has no effect yet. src/main.js should receive message via ipc like win32-overlay in order to change icon.

from desktop.

I moved the feature request to mattermost's feature idea forum.

@Johnich @sinky @jmreynolds @acidicX: If this is still a priority for you, please upvote the request in mattermost's feature idea forum and add / move your comments.

I implemented the tray functionality for matterfront (lloeki/matterfront#81) and can port it to mattermost desktop, if that's ok with you.

from desktop.

If it's ok the icon is the same as Windows, I can add it very easily in fact.

Then, this is my experiment. How do you think?

@yuya-oc Great! 👍

from desktop.

Nice. Though a dot is enough info for me. Do we really need the actual message count?

from desktop.

At least, I think there should be the way to know whether the message is "mention" or "unread", like Windows tray icon.

from desktop.

So as @teetrinkers said, the count might not be necessary.

from desktop.

@yuya-oc In my opinion the count is nice to have, not must have.

I added a second team and found out that the unread marker (on Dock icon) only appears if a new message arrives in the current active team. (OS X)

from desktop.

Now, I will able to add the icon. But it seems that it's hard to support the counting in Retina environment. Dynamically-generated images are not correctly assigned as 2x images for Electron's nativeImage.

from desktop.

@yuya-oc Counting is not so important.

from desktop.

Hi everyone! What's the current status of this feature? I can't seem to be able to find it in 2.5.2.

from desktop.

@xeno-by Which desktop app version are you running? We haven't released v2.5.2

from desktop.

v2.5.2: https://www.dropbox.com/s/7zssczcsq2mju98/Screenshot%202017-03-28%2018.20.03.png?dl=0

from desktop.

Looks like it might be the Slack desktop app @xeno-by

If you're using the app to run a Mattermost instance, we recommend downloading the Mattermost desktop app to get the best user experience.

from desktop.

no worries! 👍

from desktop.

Is this released? Can't find it.
Using the native app on mac.

from desktop.

Can't find the option to enable menu bar icon in the Notifications menu on Telegram mac os native app (downloaded via app store, not the Desktop version).
Am I missing something?

I confirm telegram menu bar can be added in the other version (Desktop Telegram), but it seems to me not in the os x native one.
Maybe I'm looking in the wrong place, but didn't found in other settings menus...

from desktop.

@besil If you go to the Mac Desktop App, choose "Mattermost" > "Preferences", there is an option to Show Mattermost icon in the menu bar

Let me know if you can't find it.
