Not possible in systray anymore

[kupiqu]

Is it not possible to have PlayBar in the systray anymore?
I really liked that feature, to replace Plasma's default media player control... Would it be possible to get it back?

In particular I like that PlayBar, if in systray, is only present when needed, that is when players are running :)

Disable it for this version, because it was very problematic and it did not look very good.
However I wish to add the feature again, but with a better Layout and a better behavior.

Previous version was working great in my system.

The only issue I experienced was that keyboard shortcuts stopped working when in addition to the playbar applet in the systray (via latte-dock), I added another one to the desktop (via plasma).

Looking forward for your new implementation of this feature, I'm sure it will be awesome! (do you have a tentative time plan for it?)

Now I'm working on LatteDock, then I think that I can added the feature for the Tuesday and the Wednesday I will launch a small release.

The only issue I experienced was that keyboard shortcuts stopped working when in addition to the playbar applet in the systray (via latte-dock), I added another one to the desktop (via plasma).

This a curious issue, and is obvious because in such case the instance that manage the global shortcuts is duplicated, then occur a conflict in the actions.

I have to invent something to avoid this.

@kupiqu The placement in systemtray was enabled, tell me what you think?

I got a warning while running cmake:

CMake Warning at /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/cmake/KF5Package/KF5PackageMacros.cmake:58 (message):
warnings during generation of metainfo for audoban.applet.playbar.systray:
PlayBar2/plasmoid-systray/../plasmoid-systray
has enabled «NoDisplay»

not sure if this is important or not...

[jsmitar]

Please ignore it, such property is totally necessary for avoid the entries duplicates of PlayBar on widget explorer.
Don't worry

It works great!

Perhaps the only thing is that it would be nice that settings that do not apply in systemtray appeared greyed out (with a bonus of a tooltip explaining why, perhaps?)

I'll keep it in mind.
