How to add Guake to the Unity top Bar?
I am using Guake in Ubuntu 12.04 64 bit ,is there any way i can put it on the Unity top Panel .
ubuntu 12.04 - 12.10
To add Guake to the Unity system-tray, you need to add it to the system-whitelist
Using dconf-editor
(installed using the dconf-tools
package), navigate as shown and add guake
to the whitelist.
You then just start the app via guake &
to make it appear in the system tray.
Make sure your guake properties (guake -p
) has the system tray checkbox ticked:
13.10 and later
The ability to whitelist applications has been removed from Unity.
The argument the developers have is that applications should have been updated to support Ubuntu indicators.
There isnt a direct method to-do this without adding an additional PPA.
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:gun101/ppa
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install guake-indicator
Search for "Guake indicator" in the dash to start the app-indicator
