Hi Carlos,

I really cannot make it work.  In either LibreOffice (LO) apps,
right-click titlebar, Attributes, Window Specification (I have it in
Portuguese so the name can differ from my translation).  The selected
choice is the first one: libreoffice.libreoffice-writer.  If I try to
change to libreoffice-writer, apply, save, next time I open LO Writer,
the chosen specification is again the first one.

I already chose "Shared application icon", but AFAICT, it's meant to
be able to open another window of some application.

Would you mind telling me what to you have as options for LO?

I don't find documentation for several of the options available in
Attributes.  For example: Emulate applicqn icon, focus across
workspaces, do not show in the switch panel, etc.  Where do I find the
explanation of these options?
