Open app window with double-click on tray icon

[AbakumovAlexandr]

Usually, single or double-click on a tray icon opens the main app window.

Describe alternatives you've considered
With IPFS Desktop to open the app window, we have to open a tray icon menu and click on a certain item.

Can we have the same behavior in IPFS Desktop: when double-clicking on the tray icon - open the app window on the last 'activity' for faster access to the app via the tray icon?

The behavior depends on platform. Some patters are only valid on Windows or Linux, but not macOS.
@AbakumovAlexandr which platform you have in mind?

Either way, if you or someone else wants to adjust behavior on specific platform, PRs welcome!
Code responsible for tray is in src/tray.js. Make sure to familiarize yourself with platform-specific limitations listed on https://www.electronjs.org/docs/api/tray

Actually, this may be easy to clean up as part of #1762.
I'll look into this.

I'm talking about Windows. Thank you!

@AbakumovAlexandr please update to 0.14.0 and let us know if the double-click behavior is correct.

@lidel Thank you double click is working!

However, for me there are still 2 minor issues:

1. Double click always opens the app on the STATUS screen. It would be great if it would open it on the last screen I was on before closing the window.

2. Single click with left mouse button still opens the context menu even when doing double click. So, the first left click quickly opens the menu until the second left click is done. Usually Windows apps are designed so that if tray icon menu opens with the right click, it just ignores the single left click.

@AbakumovAlexandr Thanks! Do you mind filling those as two new issues? 🙏

[AbakumovAlexandr]

@lidel Sure, I'm happy to do so. Please see ##1771 and ##1772.
