Questions tagged [tray]

The tag "tray" refers mostly to the GUI system notification area (called system tray) and rarely to the disc tray of an optical disc drive. Better use tag "trayicon" in case of a single tray icon and "notification-area" or "system-tray" in other cases about the system tray.
