Taskbar Window in cx 9

How can I display the taskbar window in cx 9.0?

Thanks!

We removed the GUI interface for that particular setting because it seemed to be used very infrequently. You can make the change in the registry using regedit:

  • From CrossOver's Programs menu, select Run Command
  • In the Run Command dialog, pick the bottle you want to modify
  • For the command, type "regedit"
  • Click the Run button
  • In the registry editor, navigate to HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Wine\Systray
  • Double-click on the value named "Hidden"
  • Change its value to 0
  • Quit everything in that bottle, including regedit

The next time you run something in that bottle which has a system tray icon, the tray window will show.

i did it but no tray window shows - 9.0.1 30 day trial version - i couldn`t buy this product yet :(
Example - qip - http://qip.ru

Hmm. I may have missed a bit. I think you also have to navigate to HKEY_CURRENT_USER/Software/Wine/X11 Driver and change ShowSystray to "true" (without the quotes).

Sorry about that.

Thanks a lot!

Ken can u add Systray icons to standard mac menu-bar in future versions like it do vmware fussion?
