Can't pin to dock #247

Closed 7-- closed 12 months ago

7-- commented 1 year ago

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. Can't pin to dock unless you add StartupWMClass=init.py to /usr/share/applications/brightness-controller.desktop

Describe the solution you'd like somehow be able to pin to dock without having to edit .desktop file.

Describe alternatives you've considered manually updating the .desktop file

Additional context [Desktop Entry] Name=Brightness Controller Comment=Adjust your screen brightness easily Icon=brightness-controller Exec=/usr/share/brightness-controller/init.py Terminal=false Type=Application Categories=Utility StartupNotify=true Name[en_US]=Brightness Controller StartupWMClass=init.py

I will push a minor update to the PPA with the modified desktop file. Which dock are you using, by the way?

@7-- Can you test this deb package and let us know if it works as intended? If you confirm that it works, I will push it to the PPA. https://code.launchpad.net/~apandada1/+archive/ubuntu/brightness-testing/+build/27012648/+files/brightness-controller_2.3.4-4~ubuntu22.04.1_all.deb

It works great. I can pin without making any changes to .desktop file.

I tried on my Debian 12 desktop and Ubuntu 22.04 laptop. Both had this issue before and are working now.

I have updated the PPA package with this modified .desktop file. This issue can be closed now.
