How To Add to Menu Bar ??!

Hi!


How to Add an App to the Menu Bar?


An app I have, opens in both the Dock and Menu Bar.


BUT, when I close the App it closes in both. I ONLY want to have it permanent in the Menu Bar.


It is the Simple Recorder App.


How to do this? You Know?


Kindly,

Dan

A status menu will only remain in the menu bar for as long as the application is running. When the application is launched, its icon will appear in the dock, and when frontmost its main menu will appear. You can't change this behavior unless you are the application developer (your original topic is posted in the Developer forum).


You may be able to alter the application to be background only (no Dock icon or main menu), but I'm not sure if it is designed to work this way - it would still need to be launched in order to have its status menu added.
