Teamviewer in notification area only

Question

I was wondering if there was a simple way to close Teamviewer to the notification area like I would close Skype?

EDIT:

Just to clarify my initial post, I want to enable Teamviewer in the notification area so that I can close it in my open programs bar (click on x), and it would still be running in the notification area (Skype does that, I can option Banshee and Rhythmbox to do that, and Transmission does this too). All Tray puts it into the notification area, but the x still closes Teamviewer completely, and I have not found an optional setting in Teamviewer either.

Thanks for the answer though Karni! ;)

Thank you,

Answer 1

It's an application-specific behavior - you'd need to get the app makers to change it. However, moving it to another desktop will also cause it not to be an eyesore, while alltray as Karni suggested would fill the tray part.

Answer 2

Sure, you can use alltray for that :)

Look it up in Applications -> Ubuntu Software Center, or use this command:

sudo apt-get install alltray

EDIT To minimize the program, run alltray and point to the Window of it. It will hide in the tray. To hide/unhide to/from Tray, click the Tray icon of the program :)
