The fix with if wasn't working well for me
too buggy :/ and slow
mtmr
@mtmr

Faizaan
@aulisius
Yeah, plus the flashes make it difficult to click the tray
mtmr
@mtmr
Which bug by the way?
Faizaan
@aulisius

I will change the condition to be more suitable
Faizaan
@aulisius
Well the tray icon flashes repeatedly, and after some time the cion is not loaded

Hey
MATHIAS D
@MatthD
I just want to fork this project , work a little on it to understand properly how it work , I have done npm install & build but the app generated start only a basic window with nw.js in it , is this ok?
Faizaan
@aulisius
the complete build is in the build folder based on your OS
and yeah it's ok
MATHIAS D
@MatthD
Yeah ! I am on osx , and this is what I saw in builded :
Faizaan
@aulisius
Hmm weird
MATHIAS D
@MatthD
Strange the icon is bad :s
Faizaan
@aulisius
That 's the NW icon :P
mtmr
@mtmr
Double click on it
MATHIAS D
@MatthD
I got this when lauch
mtmr
@mtmr
Wait we'll look into it.
MATHIAS D
@MatthD

@mtmr
As to how it works,
nw.js is a node.js based framework to build html5 based desktop apps
you can open the app.html in the source folder and see the code
MATHIAS D
@MatthD
Yeah I know node-webite :)
I just wanted for example to add a background color and start the app , I certainly do not understand how you lauch it ^^
MATHIAS D
@MatthD
Ok It was due to a bad download of the required , nw ;)
Faizaan
@aulisius
Phew, had us worried there :P
MATHIAS D
@MatthD
Aha me too , I did not get any error but I just clear cache ;)
Faizaan
@aulisius
So basically , from the original repo we have added following stuff
Ability to add to system tray
Some tray menu options
What we're trying to do
Proper notifs. when New message comes
mtmr
@mtmr
And that works fine on OSX and windows by the way
Linux is the problemtic one
MATHIAS D
@MatthD
Linux does not work yet ?
Faizaan
@aulisius
Well not perfectly anyway, all we have is some really kludgy workarounds
mtmr
@mtmr
The notfication doesn't work properly
everything else is great
mtmr
@mtmr
Figured out the problem
The code works when window is focused
whem minimized, the conditon fails and passes randomly
probably due to irregular scheduling of that thread
