Python + GTK + AppIndicator3 tray submenu Icon - nodefive - Dec-02-2019
I do not program in python, therefore the question. With some help from another post I was able to put this tray menu together, works ok.
How can I set icons to the sub-menu items (appstore, control center, etc)?
Thanks
#!/usr/bin/python
import os
from gi.repository import Gtk as gtk, AppIndicator3 as appindicator
def main():
indicator = appindicator.Indicator.new("customtray", "/home/unix/Bin/share/preferences/preferences.03.png", appindicator.IndicatorCategory.APPLICATION_STATUS)
indicator.set_status(appindicator.IndicatorStatus.ACTIVE)
indicator.set_menu(menu())
gtk.main()
def menu():
menu = gtk.Menu()
appstore = gtk.MenuItem('AppStore')
appstore.connect('activate', appStore)
menu.append(appstore)
controlcenter = gtk.MenuItem('Control Center')
controlcenter.connect('activate', CtrlCenter)
menu.append(controlcenter)
Separator = gtk.SeparatorMenuItem()
menu.append(Separator)
exittray = gtk.MenuItem('Quit')
exittray.connect('activate', quit)
menu.append(exittray)
menu.show_all()
return menu
def appStore(_):
os.system("deepin-appstore %U")
def CtrlCenter(_):
os.system("dbus-send --print-reply --dest=com.deepin.dde.ControlCenter /com/deepin/dde/ControlCenter com.deepin.dde.ControlCenter.Show")

gtk.main_quit()

use (for example):
syntax may be slightly off, cannot test since I don't have gi library
menu.add_command(label='AppStore', image=imagename, compound='left', command=appStore)

finally got it. Was a gtk thing. :/
controlcenter = gtk.ImageMenuItem.new_with_label('Control Center')
controlcenter.set_image(gtk.Image.new_from_file('/home/unix/Bin/share/ddefm.png'))
controlcenter.connect('activate', CtrlCenter)
controlcenter.set_always_show_image(True)
menu.append(controlcenter)
Thanks for the help mate.

img = gtk.Image()
img.set_from_icon_name("preferences-desktop", 20)
controlcenter = gtk.ImageMenuItem('Control Center')
controlcenter.set_image(img)
controlcenter.connect('activate', CtrlCenter)
menu.append(controlcenter)

Hi Axel, your solution works as well, as long as I add
controlcenter.set_always_show_image(True)Apparently that defaults to false in my system, so I have to force it with true.
Thanks mate.
