- Added an alternative 'single-click' mode that will not filter out double-click messages (requested by TsunamiZ)
- Re-worked the click handler code to make it a lot simpler, cleaner and work better (i hope)
- Updated the code to my current internal specs (makes it internally cleaner)
- The 'bring to front' option is now no longer restricted to just the 'single-click' mode
- Tweaked the layout of the config dialog to make it more consistant, etc
The purpose of this plugin is to alter the
standard left-click action when clicking on the
Winamp system tray icon. The standard behaviour
is for a single/double left click to bring Winamp
into view if minimised or to make it the active
foreground window if it is not already.
With this plugin you can either use a single or a
double click to show Winamp and then doing it
again will hide Winamp or act correctly on the
current state of Winamp. As well when using the
single-click mode there is the ability to bring
Winamp into view if it is not the active window
(ie hidden below another window).
Installation is very simple, just place the
plugin into you Winamp plugin directory and
startup Winamp (which the installer will do for you so really it is that simple!) As of v1.1 all options can be
changed 'on the fly' whilst the config dialog is
open (v1.0 and below would only update the
settings once the config dialog was closed).
With v1.3 and now v1.4 of the plugin you get full global hotkey support for the control of all of the plugin's features (based on user requests).
Remember it's subtle what the plugin does and as
a few users have found, it's one that you will
miss if you make a different Winamp installation

v1.5
Configuration:
 |
Enable 'one click' support
This allows you to control if the single / double click behaviour of the Winamp system tray icon is to be altered by the plugin or not
(just incase you do want to disable it)
Use 'single click' method / Use 'double click' method
With the single click method,
the plugin will show and hide Winamp on
subsequent clicks of the system tray icon. If you
do a double click, this will be dealt with as a
single click action.
note: If you single click too fast then this may be interpreted as a double click and the Winamp state may not alter
as expected. This is just the way the plugin works since if it has part processed the original click message it will see the double click
message and process as required. So just don't click too fast is all i can suggest since the plugin is working correctly for this mode.
With the double click method, the plugin will show and hide Winamp on subsequent double clicks of the system tray or
accordingly with the current view state of Winamp.
Bring to front
When enabled, this will keep a check on the active state of Winamp. If you click on the system tray icon and Winamp is visible but is not
the active window then with this mode on, Winamp will be made the active window and will be shown above the other windows. This will only
be available when using the 'single click' mode.
Minimise on loss of focus
When enabled, if another program becomes the currently active window then after the timeout has happened (as specified below) then Winamp will be minimised. The reason for the timer is to act as a workaround for some Windows OS funkiness).
