So the downside to this workaround is that if I use Ctrl+N or Ctrl+T to open a new window, it doesn't know to use my regular Google Chrome settings to do that -- it becomes part of the Gmail app as far as Unity is concerned. This is not an optimal solution. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of UBUNTU - AL - BR, which is subscribed to Do. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/425938 Title: Web apps (Chrome/Prism) should have individual icons in Docky Status in Do: Won't Fix Status in Docky: New Bug description: It should be possible to have web apps treated as seperate applications with their own icon in Docky. If I'm not mistaken, this could be done by taking the windows WM_CLASS into account when grouping and fetching icons. For example, I can have a desktop file with the following: [Desktop Entry] Name=Gmail Exec=chromium-browser --user-data-dir=~/.gmail --app=http://www.gmail.com --class=Gmail $* Type=Application StartupWMClass=Gmail * the --user-data option is required to start a NEW instance of chrome, otherwise it will hijack any current chrome instance and the --class argument will be ignored This would launch an instance of Chromium/Chrome running gmail in app mode. It's window class would appear as follows in xprop: WM_CLASS(STRING) = "chromium-browser", "Gmail" As opposed to a regular instance which is just: WM_CLASS(STRING) = "chromium-browser", "Chromium-browser" Is it possible to group windows like this, based on their class? It would provide some great web app integration. I filed a similar bug on the chromium tracker about properly identifying individual app instances, through their class/role or otherwise.
