Nativefier: When minimized to tray (using --tray), re-running the app should activate and focus it

Created on 10 Oct 2017  路  2Comments  路  Source: jiahaog/nativefier

Description

Once the app is minimized to tray you can open it again only from the tray icon.
The app (the same instance, especially if it was built with --single-instance) should open again when it is called to launch by any other method (shortcut, executable file etc.).

Related #304 #457

Steps to reproduce issue

nativefy with --single-instance --tray

@ronjouch thanx for the revised title, I didn't give it a lot of thought.
I know it is possible and I hope for a developer to find the time to implement it.

@Gregory-K seems legit, and feasible (just check Electron based Skype and Slack, they both do what you are describing).
