My mistake. Sorry. I read the question a bit too fast :-).
Anyway, here is an example of how to use the AWT system tray
from within JavaFX. Maybe it helps:

I just verified that this still works with Java 11+.
Otherwise I fully support the idea of getting this shortcoming fixed in
JavaFX itself.

I should also point out that this shortcoming was identified nearly 9 years ago.

I would love to make some progress on this, but I think doing it right is a
bigger job than “outsiders” can tackle. Ideally most of the desktop APIs should
be supported by JavaFX without AWT/Swing. I think that requires some careful
thought. Some of the code should be independent of the UI toolkit and it could
be shared between the AWT and JavaFX implementations. In a modular JRE we
shouldn’t need the Swing modules to have a system tray icon in a JavaFX app.

No you can’t. System tray support is something else, not an application icon
in the start bar or doc.

You can add such an icon to your JavaFX app if you bundle it with the jpackage
tool distributed with JDK 14+

Hi all guys,
love JavaFX, it's so productive, so easy to use, can't understand why the world don't use
it "for some tasks".
I know that tray icon can be easily done with AWT but is there something for
JavaFX?
Is it possible to create a tray icon with JavaFX?
Thanks
Davide
