It's hardcoded tray icons:

Apparently I'm not the only one who is a Mullvad devotee and thus has to look at that indescribably hideous tray icon. If you artistic geniuses could see your way clear to mocking up something that could be implemented with Hardcode-Tray, you'd have a new friend for life.

I don't think it needs to strictly adhere to their icon style either. I'd be elated with a scaled down version of the primary app icon that simply switched from monochrome to color to indicate the tunnel status.

@Chamrosh @RogueScholar Guys you can to clarify what icons used for what?

[varlesh]

I think from lock-2 to lock-8 or lock-9 - it's animation only

[varlesh]

• lock-1 - mullvad not connected
• lock-2 - lock-8 - animation
• lock-9 - mulvad connected?
• lock-10 - mulvad connected?

[varlesh]

@RogueScholar fixed, update Papirus and Hardcode-Tray from git and fix that.

@varlesh I just did as you suggested and I think you did a marvelous job! The outline of their logo identifies the app perfectly, and the choice to use rotational animation to signal the tunnel being created/destroyed is inspired. My only lingering desire would be for it to integrate better with dark color schemes.

I don't know if it's in keeping with your design philosophy, but my preference would be to use the current icon for active status as the inactive indicator, and then use a colored icon for the active state, either consistent with their official logo colors or a monochromatic bright green perhaps? Just a thought, but in any event I'm most grateful to you. :1st_place_medal:
