Hi Mathias,

thanks for your reply and for the details on fluxbox panel terminology.
Your guess is correct, I want to define certain apps to appear on the
system tray. They shouldn't appear on the icons toolbar for minimized
windows.

Is there any way to define this in the .fluxbox/apps file or anywhere
else?

Thanks in advance for any hints.
Best,
      Mike
