Description NW 2017-01-30 09:59:06 UTC

Hi,

I want to pin the Qt interface of Audacious to the icon-only task manager. When doing so via enabling "Show a launcher when not running"/"Pin", that launcher will always launch the GTK interface of Audacious, i.e. the following command:

audacious

However, I want the launcher to launch Audacious with the Qt interface, i.e. with the following command:

audacious --qt

I would have expected that I could edit the launcher by right-clicking on it and selecting "Edit launcher" to alter the command used by the launcher. However, there is no such option.

Could you please fix that?

Regards

No. The application author has to install a proper .desktop file and mark up the window with correct metadata so we can map to it (or you can just use the menu editor to add --qt to the Command field of the existing entry).
