Description:

Please add/change the following lines to enable support for custom theme icons.

1. Removing hardcoded icon in playonlinux.desktop:

Icon=playonlinux

2. Adding StartupWMClass to playonlinux.desktop to prevent multiple icons in plank dock:

StartupWMClass=Python2.7

StartupWMClass=Python2.7 was found using xprop on the PlayOnLinux window
Source: http://kb.openstudioproject.com/content/fix-double-google-chrome-icon-docky-and-plank

Updated playonlinux.desktop is attached.

Thanks,

Robert

The file in question comes from upstream, not from Arch. You should really be talking to them if you want it changed.

I talked to upstream and they are willing to update the desktop file. However, we are wondering whether adding StartupWMClass=python2.7 (returned from the playonlinux GUI window using xprop) will have any adverse effect on other open applicatios that use python2.7 as well.

What do you think?

Is the multiple window issue an issue with the plank dock (as opposed to an issue with the desktop file)?

One possibility is to add the following to the PKGBUILD (while continuing to investigate the WMClass issue):

makedepends=('setconf')

prepare() {
setconf playonlinux/etc/PlayOnLinux.desktop Icon playonlinux
}

This will change the Icon= line to just "playonlinux".

Hi Alexander,

I am currently no longer using Arch and thus cannot be of further help regarding this issue.

Apologies,

Robert
