kandi X-RAY | dash-to-panel Summary
Dash to Panel is an icon taskbar for Gnome Shell. This extension moves the dash into the gnome main panel so that the application launchers and system tray are combined into a single panel, similar to that found in KDE Plasma and Windows 7+. A separate dock is no longer needed for easy access to running and favorited applications. Beyond that, just about every aspect of the panel is fully customizable. From positioning and scaling panel elements to running indicators to multi-monitor display, to window previews and even intellihide, Dash to Panel has everything you need to make your workspace feel like home.

QUESTION
My application is in the selected taskbar(GNOME, dash-to-panel). When a window opens, a new icon appears in the taskbar. How to make so that the favorites icon is activated and a new one does not appear (as in other applications: Gedit, Nautilus)
Answer: Need a correct StartupWMClass entry. Find entry: in a terminal xprop WM_CLASS
...ANSWER
Answered 2019-Dec-28 at 03:34Sounds like you don't have a launcher, in GNOME environments usually a .desktop file. This file tells the desktop which kind of application your app is, allows you to create right-click actions (such as New Window, New Private Window, etc.). Here is an example:
QUESTION
I tried to write a one-liner to toggle my panel on and off.
...ANSWER
Answered 2019-Jan-29 at 09:50Your code seems perfectly fine. I had the same problem and after trying out different things I realized it was actually working. This gnome extension works in such a way, that when intellihide is activated the panel only disappears when a window is obstructed by it. Try maximizing a window and running your toggler.
QUESTION
I have a few instances (windows) of the same program. Of course, Gnome will group them and handle them as multiple windows of the same application. Grouping affects the task panel that I use, but also things like icons and Alt+Tab.
Not that rarely, it may happen that I have two windows of the same application that should not be treated as two instances of the same, but as fundamentally different. So I do not want to group them. This may affect the following applications in practice:
- Eclipse (If I have multiple different Eclipse installations)
- Many Java applications
- Same for C# applications due to Mono
- Running chromium as standalone with
--app
- ...
I do not care how this may be achieved and I am willing to put greater amounts of effort to achieve this goal since it is a major annoyance on a daily basis. I am using Gnome with the Dash-To-Panel addon, solutions may be specific to that setup or more broad.
What I tried so far: I tried manipulating the WM_CLASS
property of the windows, but it does not really work because the property seems more to be used to group windows, not to ungroup them. Furthermore, the WM does not really always respect the StartupWMClass
property in desktop files and the xprop
command is not that useful.
ANSWER
Answered 2018-Oct-31 at 17:37So I finally found a hacky workaround to resolve this problem.
the property seems more to be used to group windows, not to ungroup them.
This was a false assumtion. The truth is that the WM_CLASS
is a tuple consisting of a res_name
and a res_class
(RTFM). The latter one is usually referred to as the WM_CLASS
and is also the one you change normally.
So I extended the code from this answer to a very similar question to change the res_name
as well:
