VirtualBox icon mess? #157

Open Golddouble opened 4 years ago

Golddouble commented 4 years ago

MX Linux 19 (Debian) Xfce

I have a starter for VirtualBox. In VirtualBox I have two different Windows 7 VM's. When I open VirtualBox and start VM-1, then I get in addition this icon: VirtualBox Windows Dok

When I start Windows 7 VM-2, then I get in addition this icon: VirtualBox Windows Dok-2

Question 1: Why do I get an additional icon when I start a VM? Why is the VM not behind the VirtualBox icon. To be more precise: Why is the VirtualBox and the VM not grouped in the same icon? Question 2: Why do I not get the same icon for VM-1 and VM-2 although it is the same typ of VM? Question 3: Why do I not get this icon for the opened VM: VirtualBox W7 (When I use Xfce standard panel, I get this icon for opened Win7 VM's)

Would appreciate some answers. Thank you.

Why is the VirtualBox and the VM not grouped in the same icon?

They have different WM_CLASS value. One is "VirtualBox Manager" and another one is "VirtualBox Machine"

Why do I not get the same icon for VM-1 and VM-2 although it is the same typ of VM?

The generic window icon for VM-1 is a bug and should been fixed in https://github.com/xuzhen/dockbarx/commit/c5fd81092022209dc40c7d3d6e694c882506e36f

Why do I not get this icon for the opened VM:

DockbarX shows the "group icon" in dock, not the window icon. Read the comments for details
