[ruby-gnome2-devel-en] TrayIcon Button

[Uwe K. <uw...@ku...>]

Hi all!

I am on my first ruby-gnome application, and I could need help.  I hope
I am asking the right people.  Feel free to redirect me if I am in the
wrong place.

I have made an IMAP4 monitor to scan for old messages in mailing lists,
and delete them on the user's click of a button.

I create a Gtk::TrayIcon and add a Gtk::Button with a Gtk::Label on it.
It all works fine except that the text of the label is displayed to low
and is cut at the lower end.  Compared to the default date/clock on the
tray it looks bad.  My guess is that there is a border that needs to be
trimmed somewhere, but eberything I have tried has had no effect.
Reducing the font size helps a bit, but leaves to much space around the
text.

Can you help me get it right?

I include the relevant code:

<code>
Gtk.init

label = Gtk::Label.new
label.label = "IMAP Monitor"
button = Gtk::Button.new
button.relief = Gtk::RELIEF_NONE
button.add(label)
tray = Gtk::TrayIcon.new('OldMessages')
tray.add(button)
tray.show_all

Gtk.main
