Public bug reported:
Ubuntu 18.04.1, gnome/X11 session.
All the icons in the activities panel (the left side-bar) are shrunk if
an app is run which does not specify an icon. Perhaps the default icon
is too large, or otherwise lacking in a way which causes the entire
side-bar to be re-scaled, shrinking the existing icons.
The example below usses qmlscene (a tool to run Qt-based apps), but I've
seen this with other apps which don't have a proper icon, such as the
citrix receiver.
Please see attached screenshots (before and after running a qmlscene
program)
STEPS TO REPRODUCE:
1. # Install Qt with qmlscene.
# I think this is enough:
sudo apt-get install qmlchooser qmlscene
# But if not, then:
sudo apt-get install qtcreator qtbase5-dev
2. # create a trivial qml program
echo 'import QtQuick 2.9' >t.qml
echo 'import QtQuick.Controls 2.2' >>t.qml
echo 'ApplicationWindow { id: top; visible:true }' >>t.qml
3. qmlscene t.qml
RESULTS: The icons in the left sidebar contract to about half their
previous size.
