Description miku84 2017-03-01 10:44:15 UTC

some icons cannot be pinned to panel on wayland, using icons only manager. The right click pin is greyed out.

example for issue: Firefox, krita, clementine,krusader
working: dolpin, virtualbox, gwenview


Manjaro, KF 5.31, Plasma 5.9.3

Those are probably XWayland apps without a proper Wayland appid.

I'd need access to their X11 WM_CLASS and then refactor the code to use the heuristic from XWindowTasksModel also on Wayland for XWayland windows. Wayland also needs the pid code still for the pid fallback in that heuristic.

Or we ignore XWayland and wait for apps to get ported.

I think it is a major thing to miss. I would not try to use wayland until these separate W icons are there, because it is confusing and has the "not finished" feeling...

What I wrote above has been implemented on the master branch since then.

Thanks, that is great news! In which version will be released? Plasma 5.11?
I tried it on 5.10.3, but this feature was missing.

Yep, 5.11.
