Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Currently, it's not possible to see if OutlookGoogleCalendarSync synchronizes in the background if you don't have the UI directly opened. The system tray icon in the taskbar notification area remains static, even when actively synchronizing.

Describe the solution you'd like
It would be helpful if the system tray icon in the taskbar notification area would change from a static to a dynamic icon, indicating that a task (e.g., synchronization) is running in the background

Additional context
For example, the system tray icon in the taskbar notification area for Avast Antivirus is good here. When it checks files in the background, you can see that from the tray icon changes from a static image to a dynamic image

Some examples how a dynamic system tray icon should like from my pov can be found here:

and here:

Please see here how the system tray icon changes visually.

📦 This should now be available with hotfix v2.10.0.7.zip (see instructions for applying).

This also includes a slight update to the icon with a more modern "G" for the Google.

Let me know how it goes if you try it!
