Exaile and Picasa have big question marks icons

[Alessandro Crismani]

I've added Exaile and Picasa launchers on the dock, however when I open these programs new big question mark icons are created. I'm enclosing the screenshots of these icons. I believe the icon matching algorithm does not recognize them. Using docky build of 23rd november.

Best regards,
Alessandro

There are the only programs that do not show your icon. Here in this picture shows the "Help" menu bar of ubuntu.

Exaile matches for me now.

same problem with netbeans icon
using ubuntu 9.10 and NetBeans IDE 6.7.1

[Robert Dyer (psybers)]

@Tiago: Please file a separate bug report for Netbeans.

[Robert Dyer (psybers)]

@smate: Same for you, please file a separate bug for Amarok. Please check if one exists first, I vaguely recall one existing...

Exaile seems to match, picasa still doesn't.

I have the same problem with Picasa but also with FreeRapid Downloader

I too have the same problem with Picasa. It shows a question mark icon on the dock. I'm using the docky build as on 9-MAR-2010. I'm on Ubuntu 9.10.

The same problem with soundconverter.

[Abel Tamayo (abel-tamayo)]

I have this same problem with Aptana (a web development IDE).

Soundconverter is now fixed for me, but the problem still exists with sound-juicer.

Is someone still experiencing this bug for exaile or picasa with the latest ppa version (2.1.0~bzr1329)?

[Alessandro Crismani (alessandro-crismani)]

Sorry for my late reply. Picasa does match in rev 1372, however when I launch it I have an icon for the Launcher and one for the real app.

Cheers,
Alessandro

Let me clarify: Picasa does not match.

If you see 2 icons, it isnt matching. Just because it 'finds the icon' does not mean it matches - what you are seeing is the icon pulled directly from the window's _NET_WM_ICON property. Docky has no clue what app that is.

[Alessandro Crismani (alessandro-crismani)]

Ok, thanks for the explanation. I was glad to see the Picasa icon instead of the question mark so I thought it worked. I do not know since when the question mark changed to the _NET_WM_ICON as I switched to F-Spot and I have installed Picasa again to check the bug today.

[Robert Dyer (psybers)]

Picasa is now fixed in rev 1398.
