After starting it without kdocker, it might help to see the output from :
xwininfo -root -children | grep [Pp]rotonvpn
- and -
wmctrl -l | grep "[Pp]rotonvpn"
More detail about each window can be found with xwininfo -id 0x???????
# (From either command above)
Of course, the chosen window can be docked using the same id kdocker -w 0x???????
If that gives a better result, I would write a shell script that starts protonvpn, then wrangles the window id, then docks the window. If your output looks good enough, I might be motivated to help with that, if needed.
I tried with pidof
to get the process ID,
and then kdocker -x <process id>
,
which sadly also leads to a double icon in the tray.
This of course only applies to programs which already have their own tray implementation
(e.g. virt-manager
, fdm
, yubico-authenticator
)
I hoped to use kdocker to automatically minimize these to the tray.
Implement a new command flag to only "close" (minimize to tray) without starting a new kdocker tray entry.
KDocker
Always hidden
The downside of this work around is that in the system tray overflow menu,
the double entries will still show

The purpose of KDocker is to dock applications to the system tray. It's a solution to hiding windows. If they already have a tray icon then KDocke either isn't the right solution or you need to disable the application's tray icon if it allows that.
Ubuntu 22.04.1 LTS Gnome 42.5 KDocker 5.3
I autostart Proton VPN with the command
kdocker -t -d 15 -n Protonvpn protonvpn
as there is no built-in minimise parameter. This results in 2 icons on my top panel:Can you please tell me if it is possible to remove one of them? Preference to either keep the original or make the same click-menu options accessible from the KDocker icon.
