It really annoys me when simple things don't work. I want to be able to drag my system tray around the screen. SystrayBorderDrag is meant to be the feature to allow this but it isn't work. Here's my code...

SystrayAlwaysOnTop true
SystrayHideIfEmpty true
SystrayAutoSize true

SystrayX 0
SystrayY $resolutiony/2$
SystrayDirection down
SystrayIconSpacingY 4
SystrayBorderSize 3

SystrayBorderDrag true
SystraySnap true
SystraySnapDistance 10


Am I forgetting something?

maybe try SystrayBorderColor to see where the border is and to make sure that you're dragging from the right place ;)

Hmmm... I'm dragging the right place. I even increased the border size to 10 just to make sure I couldn't miss :)

I guess I will have to check that it's not a side effect to a conflicting module.

Well it's not a modules conflict. Can anyone point me to a theme that does this so I can compare? I must be missing setting.

Senate does it.

Thanks pika. Unfortunately Senate doesn't allow dragging either on my computer. The winamp box can be dragged. I'll have to try my theme on a different machine.

That's very odd. Please post more information about your problem as you come across it.

I've tried systray2-2.0 and vtray-1.06. I have been unable to get any dragging of each. Supposedly the command SystrayBorderDrag true enables this. I tried loading them in an lsbox but I don't know how. I can use grdTray-3.0 to drag the tray, but I hear there's no support and it crashes everytime it unloads. Maybe I can either edit systray source to make it draggable or edit grdTray to make it stop crashing. To do the former, I still want the grdTray source so i can see how to enable dragging.

Yep. I've tried vtray-1.06 also with LS 0.27.7 now and it still doesn't work.

I really want this feature so if anyone has it working please let me know.

Hook systray2 into a skinbox :)

I tried this, but I still couldn't drag. I must have been doing something wrong. I've given up on it now.
