Re: [Ayatana-dev] Questions about AppIndicators

[Nathan Osman <george_edison55@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Unfortunately, that doesn't work:

I tried adding:

    ind.set_label("This is a test!")

to my example, but I get the following error:

    ind.set_label("This is a test!")

    AttributeError: 'appindicator.Indicator' object has no attribute 'set_label'

...and it fails to load.
