Re: [Bug 984968] Re: SlickEdit cannot create fully functional icon on Unity bar
Yes. Actually the 2 bugs you mention and 'mine' are all the same. The only reasonable way to get a 'viable' icon in the Unity launcher is to create a quicklist (*.desktop) file. This is true for SlickEdit, Eclipse, Skype, and many more applications. (!) Additional issue, that should be inserted under the same umbrella: Sometimes, a stupid notification window of the style Could not open a file creates its own icon in the launcher. This icon can be kept in launcher. As expected, clicking this icon launches nothing. Generally, the Keep in launcher thing is broken, because - there are many applications it cannot 'catch' - there are applications it should not catch, and it does - in any case you cannot configure anything more than trivial functionality - pressing the mouse wheel should open a new instance of the same application, but many applications require commandline parameters to open another instance, rather than activate the existing one - you cannot configure it. Should I go on ?
