some applications always open in the hidden section

[mcandre]

Describe the bug

I specifically dragged Dropbox and Docker to the right of the hidden menu arrow.

However, when I launch these applications, their menu icon goes into the hidden section instead of my preference, the shown section.

I suspect this may have to do with the fact that these applications actually modify their own menubar icon when they launch.

In any case, hidden could improve integration with these applications.

I am having slightly better luck by placing the desired shown applications between the pipe and arrow icons.

Steps to reproduce

1. Launch Dropbox or Docker.

Expected behaviour

The Dropbox and Docker menubar icons should launch to the right of the hidden menu arrow.

I have the same issue, I'm not technically into that but my understanding is that these apps create "new icons" instead of "reusing" the already-moved-to-the-visible-section one. This happens also for "smaller" apps like pomy. I think it would be worth a try to put these apps into launch-on-login, maybe that changes their behaviour? But this issue combined with the fact that it hides icons behind the notch really is a bummer to me. I would like to use the app so much as I think its pretty neat, but some issues need to be adressed in order to be useful/productive.

That issue happens when using Doll too
