I have simple PyQt5 application, which is just an example, and doesn't do anything:
#!/usr/bin/env python
# -*- encoding: utf-8 -*-
import sys
from PyQt5 import QtWidgets, QtCore, QtGui
class SystemTrayIcon(QtWidgets.QSystemTrayIcon):
def __init__(self, icon, parent=None):
super(SystemTrayIcon, self).__init__(icon, parent)
menu = QtWidgets.QMenu(parent)
exitAction = menu.addAction("Exit")
exitAction.triggered.connect(parent.close)
self.setContextMenu(menu)
class MainWindow(QtWidgets.QWidget):
def __init__(self):
super(MainWindow, self).__init__()
self.initUI()
def initUI(self):
self.setGeometry(300, 300, 250, 150)
self.setWindowTitle('Icon')
self.tray_icon = SystemTrayIcon(QtGui.QIcon('test.ico'), self)
self.tray_icon.show()
self.show()
if __name__ == '__main__':
app = QtWidgets.QApplication([])
w = MainWindow()
sys.exit(app.exec_())
After start, it shows main window and tray icon. But tray icon isn't in tray. It is in left-upper corner.
How do I fix this? This code works normally on Windows 7, Mac OS X, and Archlinux with KDE. So problem probably in Ubuntu DE.
I use latest ubuntu 14.04 amd64, python 3, PyQt5, Qt version is 5.2.1
