Tray

Kanade hosts the apps’ tray items and is their StatusNotifierWatcher unless another program already is. Hovering the Island at Rest shows them as the Tray Presentation; the Tray Surface lists them with their menus.

Target	Action
A slot	Left activates it; an item that is only a menu shows its menu instead
The wheel	Scrolls it
Middle click	Its secondary activation
Right click	Its menu

Keys: arrows and Tab move the ring, Enter or Space press, Right enters a submenu, Left or Escape goes back a level.

A Tray item’s menu is a Sub-surface, and each submenu another below it. With no tray Module there is no strip and no Surface.

Note

The privacy dots show past a Tray strip’s last slot, so a capture in use stays visible even with the tray raised.
