Interesting. Opened upstream issue, https://github.com/bbidulock/icewm/issues/503 Unfortunatelly I don't have any viable workaround for you, brief experimenting with winoptions (trying to enfoce decorations adding) was not effective.

Bug#972498: icewm: xnec2c not managed by icewm
Package: icewm Version: 1.8.3-2 Severity: important Dear Maintainer, Since some months I switched (back) to icewm. Unfortunaly, a program that I often use, xnec2c, is not correctly managed by icewm. When I start xnec2c, windows are not decorated, do not appear in the taskbar, are always in foreground and are not, in any way, managed by icewm. xnec2c is a gtk3 multiwindow program: depending on the initial conf, the program is started with one o more windows opened, suffering the symptoms described before. Other windows, successively opened by xnec2c itself, are instead correcly managed. I tried other versions of icewm, in particular 1.6.6-1 and 1.4.3.0~pre-20181030-2 but results are the same. I tried LXDE (with Openbox) and Fluxbox and in these cases, xnec2c is duly opened and managed by the wm. I also noticed that if I start xnec2c in fluxbox and after I switch to icewm, all the windows work as it should be. -- System Information: Debian Release: bullseye/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 5.9.0-1-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU threads) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE=en_US:en Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) LSM: AppArmor: enabled Versions of packages icewm depends on: ii fonts-dejavu-core 2.37-2 ii icewm-common1.8.3-2 ii libao4 1.2.2+20180113-1+b1 ii libc6 2.31-4 ii libfribidi0 1.0.8-2 ii libgcc-s1 10.2.0-15 ii libgdk-pixbuf2.0-0 2.40.0+dfsg-5 ii libglib2.0-02.66.1-2 ii libice6 2:1.0.10-1 ii libsm6 2:1.2.3-1 ii libsndfile1 1.0.28-8 ii libstdc++6 10.2.0-15 ii libx11-62:1.6.12-1 ii libxcomposite1 1:0.4.5-1 ii libxdamage1 1:1.1.5-2 ii libxext62:1.3.3-1+b2 ii libxfixes3 1:5.0.3-2 ii libxft2 2.3.2-2 ii libxinerama12:1.1.4-2 ii libxpm4 1:3.5.12-1 ii libxrandr2 2:1.5.1-1 ii libxrender1 1:0.9.10-1 icewm recommends no packages. icewm suggests no packages. -- no debconf information
