Launch minimized not working #297

Open WebShapedBiz opened 2 years ago

WebShapedBiz commented 2 years ago

OS Linux, elementaryOS 6 Odin

Gmail Desktop Version 3.0.0-alpha.27 (dev)

Describe the bug Although I have "Launch Minimized" selected, Gmail Desktop is always autostarting maximized. The .desktop file in .config/autostart folder doesn't have any parameters weather I select "Launch minimized" or not: It's always Exec="/opt/Gmail Desktop/gmail-desktop" %U

Is there any parameter that I could add manually?

Thank you for the time and effort you've put into this gem.

Cheers.

I tried elementaryOS 6.1 in a virtual machine, and it worked for me with the deb package.

Here's what I did:

Thank you very much @DinCahill for your time and effort here, you really made an effort. I've done everything from your list, except compiling myself, but with no luck. I'll try to find out why I have this issue on both my computers while everything works as it should on yours.

Thank you again for the help.

Cheers.

@WebShapedBiz is this still an issue with the latest version v3.0.0-alpha.31? Unfortunately I can't reproduce it on macOS, but Gmail Desktop accepts launch-minimized as command line argument.

Even worse @timche, now it doesn't even start. This is the error from the terminal:

@WebShapedBiz after what steps did this error occur? Can you please try to re-install the app please? Unfortunately I'm not using Linux myself, so it's very difficult for me to see what exactly is wrong or caused it.

WebShapedBiz commented 2 years ago

I've installed version alpha.29, alpha.30, and alpha.31, and on each version that app starts but with empty Gmail account tabs. After that, I've reinstalled version alpha.27 that I've been using all this time and everything is back to normal. EDIT: All tests on deb files plus Appimage for alpha.31

New development - on my first email account everything is fine but on the second account, I cannot log in due to the "This browser or app may not be secure" error. It's hilarious because on both accounts I'm not allowing unsecured apps.

timche commented 2 years ago

@WebShapedBiz you can try with disabling "Use User Agent Fix" or try signing in multiple times. This "security blocker" is happening very inconsistently.

WebShapedBiz commented 2 years ago

Thank you it worked :-)

timche commented 2 years ago

@WebShapedBiz so do you still have the original issue though?

WebShapedBiz commented 2 years ago

Yes I do and unfortunately haven't had a chance to test new alpha versions because they won't run.

@WebShapedBiz Have you tried running the latest version with a clean config?

mv ~/.config/Gmail\ Desktop ~/.config/Gmail\ Desktop.bak

WebShapedBiz commented 2 years ago

Well, this will amuse you.

On my main PC, where I tried yesterday new alpha releases and they didn't work, I reinstall back alpha.27 version, which works fine but also, after all this installation and reinstallation gmail-desktop now actually starts minimized. I haven't touch preferences at all. On my laptop, same OS, same apps, alpha.32 with clean config works fine BUT I cannot get it to start minimized. Go figure.

Anyhow, thank you very much @DinCahill for your time and effort.

Cheers.
