Keepass 2 shows new icon with low resolution

[Kabanov Dmitry]

I have keepass2 icon pinned to Docky. But when I click on it new keepass2 icon appears with low resolution.

It's the same problem as with Java applications. For Java we have workaround.

But keepass2 is Mono application. I work in Ubuntu 11.04, which have Banshee music player, which is also Mono application. But with Banshee there is no problem in Docky.

How can I set Keepass 2 so that it behaves as Banshee?

keepass2 has no vector icon available, only raster in the size 16,32,48 and 256
I do not know which icon docky uses, apparently not the largest one.

What is he workaround for java applications?

[Kabanov Dmitry (kabanovdmitry)]

It's no problem with vector icons, it's linked with window matching.

The problem is that Mono (.Net) applications launch as /usr/bin/cli, as the same as Java applications launches as java.

The workaround for java applications can be found here:

I can't reproduce the problem as I can't even get keepass to pin to docky.

But from reading the bug it docky seems to need the WM_CLASS property which mono winform apps do not set:

I'm an not aware of a workaround.

banshee works as it is a gtk# application which does set WM_CLASS

This was fixed in KeePass 2.20
