ok, thank you very much. I tried it out, and it seems to work often, but not always. Of all my KDE apps with trayicons, I found that about 10-15 were working out-of-the-box, and only 2 (JuK and Kopete) need the old winprop settings. I don't know why these 2 behave differently because they also set this style property. Another small thing: The kbluetoothd deamon, also works, but when trying to close the app, the close confirmation dialog also goes into the tray icon with 22 (or 24, i dont know) pixel size, making it impossible to close the daemon. When then try to close it by pressing ctrl-c in the shell i started kbluetoothd, Ion crashes completely. > I haven't tested it beyond checking that it compiles, but it _should_ work. > I don't have KDE or GNOME installed on my system, so I can't test it. I don't use KDE or GNOME myself since Ion is all I need, but isn't there even a single application like a MP3 player oder Instant Messenger which uses the kde libs? Thanks for making this patch. It's hard to say, if it is "production-ready", maybe there could be a setting in the dock.lua configuration file, to enable this advanced feature for those who really use kde apps often, and to disable it for people who don't trust this type of autodetection. But since you don't use kde yourself, don't put too much work into this, I could also set these 10 or 15 winprops for kde apps I use. thanks, Martin
