  • Known issue: Saving the password does not work when launching from a window manager like Sway. If you use gnome-keyring but not GNOME, set XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP=GNOME env variable (potentially by copying the .desktop file to ~/.local/share/applications/ and adjusting it).
  • Known issue: App restarts (e.g. when enabling or disabling logging) don't work when started through an app launcher like dmenu. They work when starting "ThreemaDesktopLauncher" from the command line though. See https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/threema-desktop-beta?O=10#comment-1020954 for more details.

@dbrgn: Thanks for the answer! I have made a request there, hopefully they will add it somewhere down the line

I know this is not a place for this type of question but I have no idea where to place as there is no issue tracker I can find on threema github so I apologize up front.

Is there any way to place threema-desktop-beta in system tray? Not just taskbar.

I want it to be open in background and as it is now, it just stays in taskbar and I can minimize it or close it

Any patch to force it in tray?

I'm on Plasma/KDE

@dbrgn // thanks for the tip! i am now a j4-dmenu-desktop user myself as well.

@Dwa30v: I use SwayWM myself, and use https://github.com/enkore/j4-dmenu-desktop for launching desktop applications directly through dmenu/bemenu. Should work on i3wm as well.

@dbrgn - thank you for adding threema-beta! perfect in my case, as i am using i3wm. and, thank you for submitting this package. i appreciate it. perfect as the threema v6 for android just dropped.

@Dwa30v: Thanks to the packaged .desktop file, a typical app launcher should automatically pick up the program, and you can launch it with "Threema Beta".

However, you are right that a commandline launcher would be practical as well. I updated the package, you can launch with threema-beta in /usr/bin.

Dwa30v commented on 2025-04-24 22:31 (UTC)

Launcher:
/opt/threema-desktop-beta/ThreemaDesktopLauncher
