Description

Hi,

I am running Copyq on a M1 pro macbook now and can't seem to get the tray menu to show up by right clicking the tray icon per the documentation. However, running /Applications/CopyQ.app/Contents/MacOS/CopyQ menu does show the menu where the cursor is .

How do I get this to show up upon clicking the tray icon? Secondly, is there a way to change the tray icon behavior so this menu shows up on left click?

.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Investigate how CopyQ handles system tray icon on macOS, particularly event handling for right click and left click. Check Qt documentation for QSystemTrayIcon on macOS and look at existing code in CopyQ's tray implementation.
