I get a small circle

I'm following the instructions to have a nm-applet here.

I have Arch with hyprland. stalonetray from official repos.

When I run:

nm-applet    2>&1 > /dev/null &
stalonetray  2>&1 > /dev/null
killall nm-applet

I get a small circle, with no icon, that can't be resized and do nothing.

I suspect this has something to do with the WM. I never tested stalonetray on Wayland too... Can you share the logs with --log-level trace and also try a different WM (preferably on X11)?

I've sent them to you my email.

It looks like it error out in calling some X11 function.

If it doesn't work on Wayland, that's fine and we can close this.

I do not see anything weird in the logs. It cannot find xwininfo, but it is only used for debug logging. I also see that it successfully embeds the network manager applet.

I would like to keep this open. Maybe I'll find time to look into this some day :)
