Except for a couple of dialogs, the GMail web page under your preferred browser is providing the user interface. GG is just the means to interface the browser better to GNOME.
Thanks Dave for responding so quickly. I get that this app is just a convenience wrapper.
From what you are saying there isn't really a way to have an active Gmail window shown under it's own dock symbol then, correct?
The problem is that, every time I click on the Gmail symbol in the dock, it opens a new window, even if a Gmail window is already open.
GMail has become less amenable to supporting GG over time. I used to be able to open a draft in it's own window- now it just shows the drafts window.
It should be possible to just access the previous drafts window. I just haven't given up on my preferred window for each draft.
I'll mark this wishlist
For those who heavily works with Google products (mail, Sheets, Slides), most of the desktop is various browser tabs. This App can help distinguishing the Mail tab from the rest of the pack. this is a highly missing feature of Gnome/Chrome.
I'm voting for this enhancement.
I think I found a solution (a workaround) basically I created a gmail shortcut from the Browser, then bookmarked it instead of Gnome Gmail. So on the dock I now correctly see the dot under the gmail app icon and not under the browser one, but in the same time I can use gmail as the default mail app
The Ubuntu Gnome dock does not show the active Gmail window under the gnome-gmail app symbol, but instead it's associated with the Chrome browser (see two dots under the Chrome browser icon -- one of them is for the Gmail app window).
