在用 eOS 的時候，你可能會遇到系統托盤的問題，有些需要托盤的軟件比如說 QQ，沒辦法在 eOS 的 Wingpanel 上顯示，一最小化就不見了，或者出現一個 System tray 的窗口，很麻煩。這是由於 elementaryOS 是沒有系統托盤的，只有 Wingpanel，如果軟件沒有 appindicator，就不會顯示在 Wingpanel 上顯示，這是官方解釋。本文章提供一種不是很完美的解決方案，能暫時解決系統托盤問題。
我的博客原文：
python-appindicator
python-appindicator只對python寫的程序有用，比如goagent、dropbox。打開終端並輸入：
sudo apt-get install python-appindicator
安裝完成之后，便可以顯示python程序的托盤。
stalonetray
但是其它非python的程序也無法顯示在Wingpad上，博主也找不到辦法讓它們顯示在Wingpad上，但是有一種折中的解決方案。就是把系統托盤獨立出來，需要用到stalonetray，安裝可參考這里。默認是顯示在左上方，需要修改一下配置文件~/.stalonetrayrc。

這里介紹幾個重點的，這是我自己的配置文件：
geometry 1x1+2+30 ＃這個是位置及初始化大小，我這里的大小是1x1，坐標為(+2,+30)，其+表示左邊與上邊，－表示下邊與右邊 transparent true #是否透明 window_layer bottom #窗口的層次 slot_size 24 #托盤圖標占用的大小 icon_size 16 #顯示圖標大小
這是效果圖：
