i made it. JavaFX with AWT. I have one example of a application that shows and hides when you make left clic. i really hope works for you

import java.awt.AWTException;
import java.awt.Image;
import java.awt.SystemTray;
import java.awt.Toolkit;
import java.awt.TrayIcon;
import java.awt.event.MouseAdapter;
import java.awt.event.MouseEvent;
import java.net.URL;
import javafx.application.Application;
import static javafx.application.Application.launch;
import javafx.application.Platform;
import javafx.event.ActionEvent;
import javafx.event.EventHandler;
import javafx.scene.Scene;
import javafx.scene.control.Button;
import javafx.scene.layout.StackPane;
import javafx.stage.Stage;

public class MainApp2 extends Application {

int stateWindow = 1;

@Override
public void start(final Stage stage) throws Exception {

    //Check the SystemTray is supported
    if (!SystemTray.isSupported()) {
        System.out.println("SystemTray is not supported");
        return;
    }

    URL url = System.class.getResource("/image/yourImage.png");
    Image image = Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit().getImage(url);

    //image dimensions must be 16x16 on windows, works for me
    final TrayIcon trayIcon = new TrayIcon(image, "application name");

    final SystemTray tray = SystemTray.getSystemTray();

    //Listener left clic XD
    trayIcon.addMouseListener(new MouseAdapter() {
        @Override
        public void mouseClicked(MouseEvent event) {
            if (event.getButton() == MouseEvent.BUTTON1) {
                Platform.runLater(new Runnable() {
                    @Override
                    public void run() {
                        if (stateWindow == 1) {
                            stage.hide();
                            stateWindow = 0;
                        } else if (stateWindow == 0) {
                            stage.show();
                            stateWindow = 1;
                        }
                    }
                });
            }

        }
    });

    try {
        tray.add(trayIcon);
    } catch (AWTException e) {
        System.out.println("TrayIcon could not be added.");
    }

    stage.setTitle("Hello man!");
    Button btn = new Button();
    btn.setText("Say 'Hello man'");
    btn.setOnAction(new EventHandler() {

        @Override
        public void handle(ActionEvent event) {
            System.out.println("Hello man!");
        }
    });
    StackPane root = new StackPane();
    root.getChildren().add(btn);
    stage.setScene(new Scene(root, 300, 250));
    Platform.setImplicitExit(false);
    stage.show();

}
