Feature request: show upload/download speed on the system tray icon

Started by Ero

Halo,

Thank you for your software its very nice to keep track of bandwidth. But it would be nice if when it launches at the system tray it should be able to show network activity as in upload and download speed on the system tray icon. In the form of a nice graph like how Netbalancer from Seriousbit.com does. I have to click on the system tray icon to get the network speed (upload and download) or hover the mouse over it, which is very cumbersome. Hope you will implement this recommendation.

Thanks

This information can't be shown in a notification area icon due to the limited size of that icon. Its size is 16x16px and it's not really possible to squeeze two numbers in there. However, you can have a small chart. See Graph in tray icon.

If you want DL/UL speeds, there is a component called desk band that shows a usage graph and speeds right next to it:
