DESCRIPTION
trayer is a small program designed to provide system tray similar to
these in GNOME / KDE desktop environments for window managers which
does not support that function. It is similar to other applications
such as peksystray and docker.
System tray is a place, where many applications put their icons, so
they are always visible. Such icons may present status of an
application and allow user to control the program.
trayer’s code was extracted from fbpanel application, you can find more
about it on its homepage: http://fbpanel.sourceforge.net/.

--widthtype request|pixel|percent
Specifies method of calculating trayer’s window width:
request
Follow application icons’ size, so trayer may shrink or
expand dynamically.
pixel Set a fixed size, given with --width option in pixels.
percent
Set a fixed size, given with --width option in percentage
of a length of screen edge.
--width <size>
Width of trayer’s window. Ignored when --widthtype is set to
request.
--heighttype request|pixel|percent
Specifies method of calculating trayer’s window height:
request
Follow application icons’ size, so trayer may shrink or
expand dynamically.
pixel Set a fixed size, given with --height option in pixels.
percent
Set a fixed size, given with --height option in
percentage of a length of screen edge.
--height <size>
Height of trayer’s window. Ignored when --heighttype is set to
request.
--SetDockType true|false
Identify panel window type as dock.
--SetPartialStrut true|false
Reserve panel space so that it will not be covered by maximized
windows.
--transparent true|false
Use transparency.
--alpha <value>
Percentage of transparency (0 - nontransparent, 255 - fully
transparent)

--distance <length>
Specifies distance between trayer’s window and screen edge (in
pixels)
--distancefrom <edge>
