Tray

System tray icons, shown either inside the quick settings popup or directly on the panel.

Section: [tray]. These keys can also be set flat at the top level; the section wins when both are set.

Key Type Default What it does
on_panel bool false Show tray items directly on the bar instead of inside the quick settings popup
spacing int (px) 0 Horizontal gap between tray icons
position "left" / "right" "left" Side of the quick settings button
always_on_panel list [] App ids whose tray icons always show on the bar, even when the rest of the tray is nested
popup_icon_size int (px) 22 Tray icon size inside the quick settings popup; the pill around them scales with it
  • Flat at the top level, position must be spelled tray_position — a bare position would collide with workspaces.position.
  • always_on_panel is matched against the SNI Id, title and icon name, and as a substring of the tooltip. For Electron apps, match on the tooltip: they all report chrome_status_icon_1 as Id with an empty title.
