**Tray** is an [Obsidian](https://obsidian.md/) plugin that can be used to launch the app on system startup and run it in the background, adding an icon to the system tray that it can be minimised to and a global hotkey to toggle visibility of the app's windows. ## Configuration | Option | Description | Default | | -------------------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | ------------------- | | Launch on startup | Open Obsidian automatically whenever you log into your computer. | Disabled | | Hide on launch | Minimises Obsidian automatically whenever the app is launched. If the "Run in background" option is enabled, windows will be hidden to the system tray/menubar instead of minimised to the taskbar/dock. | Disabled | | Run in background | Hide the app and continue to run it in the background instead of quitting it when pressing the window close button or toggle focus hotkey. | Disabled | | Hide taskbar icon | Hides the window's icon from from the dock/taskbar. This may not work on all Linux-based OSes. | Disabled | | Create tray icon | Add an icon to your system tray/menubar to bring hidden Obsidian windows back into focus on click or force a full quit/relaunch of the app through the right-click menu. _Changing this option requires a restart to take effect._ | Enabled | | Toggle window focus hotkey | Format: [Electron accelerator](https://www.electronjs.org/docs/latest/api/accelerator) | CmdOrCtrl+Shift+Tab | ## Installation ### Obsidian Marketplace (Coming Soon) 1.
