Ubuntu – Enable Parcellite indicator in Ubuntu 12.04

indicator

Is it still possible to enable the Parcellite indicator in Ubuntu 12.04? I've noticed that the indicator no longer shows up when I launch Parcellite. Is there a workaround for this?

Best Answer

In the latest releases Parcellite claims to support Unity. Debian packages without an application indicator are available from the project's home page. There we also have an announcement for a ppa that is supposed to contain the application indiciator once it is populated.

Alterantively you may install its fork ClipIt Install clipit instead.

Install via the software center

In case you do for any reason need to further run Parcellite you may whitelist its panel icon by running dconf-editor (from dconf-tools Install dconf-tools) Desktop -> Unity -> panel or from the command line

gsettings set com.canonical.Unity.Panel systray-whitelist "['parcellite']"
