mac systray icon not found in release build.

[gedw99]

It is not easy to see but the ICON in the systray is not there.
In fact it is invisible you will find. So you get tricked into thinking that the systray is not even running.

Raised an Issue with him:
shurcooL/trayhost#24

Packaging the example does not solve the problem.
But at least Notifications work :)

[JanezStupar]

Interesting... It worked fine when I tested it on my machine. Thanks for feedback. I'll have a look into it.

[JanezStupar]

I didn't have time to give it a closer look but this looks like a red flag:
An error has occurred while parsing the icon: file reading error: open /Users/apple/go/assets/icon.png: no such file or directory

This doesn't look like a correct path to me.

[JanezStupar]

@gedw99 It seems to me like you ran the project from your user dir -> thus the path resolution in the Flutter example app is wrong.

I think that your issue will be resolved if you run the example from flutter_systray/example directory.

The setImage deprecation warning may indeed be a potential issue. May look into it in the future whenever I am going to be doing more work on this plugin or when it becomes an error.

[gedw99]

Hey @JanezStupar thanks for looking at this.

i did run it from the example dir. See screenshot of bundled release.

Also when you try to use a pkg to install it as a user it fails at the end with an error but no message.
I suspect that might be a hover issue though.

[gedw99]

here is the pkg install error.

[JanezStupar]

I have had issues with PKG on my project too, I also suspect its a hover issue but haven't looked into it too much. That's why I am relying on DMG ATM.

Would you be kind enough and let me have hover doctor output?

[gedw99]

sure

Hey. Yeah look like dmg for now.

I am wanting to load a flutter webview instead of a native view.
Will have a look around

[gedw99]

anyway the main issue is the icon not showing for release pkg.
