Xubuntu 18.04 (xfce4) no menu available by clicking tray icon - cannot access Insync

Bugs and issues
#1

I’ve upgraded to Xubuntu 18.04 (fresh install, actually) and there is a SERIOUS issue - I cannot actually access Insync via taskbar icon (Status Notifier Pugin) - neither left click nor right nor double-click does anything :frowning:

Before it worked OK.

Debug and more info:

  1. I’ve already deleted the old ~/.config/Insync to be sure - has not helped.
  2. Insync installed from repository ('ve followed official howto) https://www.insynchq.com/downloads#tab3 (third tab)
  3. hovering with mouse curser over Insync Icon shows the version (1.4.9.37127) and wrong hostname - it has correct letters, but capitals are wrong. Since GNU/linux OS is case sensitive, this should not happen…

What to do? Cannot use Insync in graphical mode! Thank you

Hi @crysman!

Can you try right clicking the Insync tray icon and then ‘Disable’ the ‘Status Notifier Plugin’?

Let me know if it works!

unfortunately, nope :confused:

This is what I get after right click -> (Status Notifier Plugin):Properties:

BTW, in desperation I’ve tried middle mouse button - and it works! Confusing anyway… I believe it should work correctly with standard clicks as e.g. Blueman Applet or PulseAudio plugin does (and Insync used to work before)… Thanks.

This works for me too! Thanks, this was a lifesaver. I do agree it should work with single click though…
