Show Profile Info in the Tray Icon (not via tooltip)

Hi,

I wish I could see which profile currently active by just looking at the tray icon, without having have to hover over it with my mouse and display the info tooltip.

For example if I could set color to each profile and the tray icon color changes according to the set color of each profile. Or, just show the profile ID at the tray icon.

Cheers,
Ben

Re: Show Profile Info in the Tray Icon (not via tooltip)

We would actually love to do that. Unfortunately, a while ago when this option was first requested by another user, we haven't found a decent way that is both user-friendly and easy to implement. All good solutions that we came up with would require many days of implementation (integrating a configuration dialog in the profile UI, dynamical creation and modification of graphics, managing dynamically created icons and so on). At the moment this seems to be too much effort for such a small feature just to save the user two seconds.
In other words: We have currently other new features with a higher priority in progress that we're focusing on. Nevertheless, we still have it on our backlog and will come back to it when time allows.
