I guessed it was setting WM_CLASS after the window was all set up, if that's even possible. I didn't investigate because I decided years ago to have as little as possible to do with Gnome and the horrid idiots behind freedesktop.org in general. I tried for 13 years to get and keep consistent comfortable workflows on Linux desktops, and in the end I just had to conclude it was never going to happen. It's been about 5 years since I gave up, but within that time, even with minimal use of desktop programs at all, I've had to add Gtk+ to the heap of software I want as little to do with as possible. For most of those 13 years it looked like the idiots were obsessed with emulating "industry standards" which were vague and poorly chosen in the first place. Now tablets are more popular than desktops the Gnome people are trying new things, but the idiots are still focused on implementing and forcing on their users things they *feel* are are the Latest Greatest Progress, when they collectively haven't got the intelligence to truly judge. Their use of that religious icon of a word, "progress", makes them feel they have a right to screw with you and your workflow however they please, and if you complain that makes you "rude" or "a troll" and thus worthy of being banned from discussion. -- Developing the austere intellectual discipline of keeping things sufficiently simple is in this environment a formidable challenge, both technically and educationally. -- Dijstraka, EWD898, 1984
