2023-11-23 13:52:20 Dave Jones description I'm unsure if this is a bug in quassel, or in gnome itself. Under Ubuntu 23.10 (mantic), running Quassel from a pinned icon on the left bar results in the pinned icon appearing "idle" (not running), and a second icon appearing below those that are pinned which apparently represents the running quassel instance. Pressing the idle quassel icon (or pressing the Super+4 shortcut for it) runs *another* instance of quassel rather than switching to the running instance. The "extra" icon also cannot be pinned (and occasionally strange "copies" of it are left lying around if one tries to drag it to the pinned icon locations). This may be because quassel is a Qt based application, but I also run KeepassXC (another Qt application) without such issues (other than unusual window borders and icons which appear on both applications), hence why I'm unsure this is an issue in quassel or in gnome. I'll attach a screenshot demonstrating the issue. I'm unsure if this is a bug in quassel, or in the gnome dock itself.

I'll attach a screenshot demonstrating the issue. I'm unsure if this is a bug in the affected applications, or in the gnome dock itself. Under Ubuntu 23.10 (mantic) and 24.04 (noble), running Quassel, Veusz, or OpenSCAD from a pinned icon on the left bar results in the pinned icon appearing "idle" (not running), and a second icon appearing below those that are pinned which apparently represents the running instance. Pressing the idle application icon (or pressing the Super+N shortcut for it) runs *another* instance of the application rather than switching to the running instance. The "extra" icon also cannot be pinned (and occasionally strange "copies" of it are left lying around if one tries to drag it to the pinned icon locations). This may be because these are all Qt-based applications, but I also run KeepassXC (another Qt application) without such issues (other than unusual window borders and icons which appear on both applications), hence why I'm unsure this is an issue in these applications or in the gnome dock. I'll attach a screenshot demonstrating the issue.
