4.6. System Tray Support

When compiled with Systray support, Aqualung will place its icon in the system tray (notification area), and lets all of its windows be closed while still playing music. In this mode pressing the upper right X on the main window will not exit the program, only hide its windows.

Clicking on the systray icon with the left mouse button will toggle visibility of the program's windows. Clicking with the right button will bring up a popup menu allowing showing/hiding the windows, basic cueing, and quitting Aqualung.

The systray icon has a tooltip displaying the same text as the main window's title. So it's easy to see what track is currently playing, and also the Aqualung instance ID (in case of more instances).
