cannot have more than one icon with witray #183

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago
This morning, I updated to the latest tip and saw witray, which works great
except for one thing, I cannot seem to get more than one tray icon

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. launch witray with default options
2. launch two apps that make tray icons, (pidgin and skype for example).

What happens is that the skype icon will be where the Pidgin one was, until
you stop skype

That's strange. It works for me. Try moving the window to see if the other 
icons are
offscreen, and also try running it with some different flags.

it seems odd to me, but I am able to pop witray into the managed layer with
mod+shift+space and also move it to different tags with mod+shift+x, did it a 
few
times by accident, but anyways, I am able to see all of the tray icons when I 
do that...
except when skype is involved

the odd one here was skype, it seems that when I run skype with nothing else, 
no tray
icon appears....when i run skype with other tray icons there, the tray goes 
blank but
acts like im clicking the skype icon when i click anywhere in that tray

Additionally, when I tried pidgin and then checkgmail, the pidgin and gmail 
icons
showed up (though the icons are a bit clipped), but the gmail icon moved 
completely
off of the screen when i switched the view to another tag

I have attached a few screenshots of different things, I moved witray to the 
managed
layer here because it allows you to see all of it

Thanks

It turns out that Skype is just plain evil. Rather than using XEmbed, like it's
supposed to, it sets the override_redirect flag and maps and unmaps itself at 
will.
Since the tray expected (perish the thought) its clients to behave reasonably, 
it
didn't take account of the fact that it was mapped.

As for the icons being clipped, well, that's the apps' fault. If it bothers 
you, just
set a bigger icon size.
