Compact Mini-Bar Mode

The Compact Mini-Bar is a stripped-down overlay window showing your active transfers and aggregate speeds without the full Nebulae window.

Switching to Mini-Bar mode

Click the Compact button (arrow/minimize icon) at the right end of the toolbar. The main window collapses into a narrow horizontal bar.

What the Mini-Bar shows

  • The label Nebulae Mini-Bar at the left.
  • A list of active (downloading or uploading) transfers with their name and progress bar.
  • Aggregate download ↓ and upload ↑ speeds.
  • A Minimize to System Tray button.

The Mini-Bar is intentionally minimal. You can't add or manage torrents from it.

Returning to the full window

Click the Expand button (the same toggle button that put you into Mini-Bar mode) to restore the full window.

Minimising to the system tray

Click Minimize to System Tray in the Mini-Bar to hide the window entirely. Nebulae continues running and downloading in the background. Click the tray icon to restore the window.

Note

The Minimize to Tray and Close to Tray behaviours are controlled in Settings → Behavior → User Interface & Desktop Integration.
