Tray icon is always a question mark

[Victor239]

How do I get KDocker to use the unique desktop icon for each application?

If I use the "Set Icon" option by right-clicking the docked application I can set the icon temporarily, but when the application is closed and then reopened it will be back to the question mark icon again.

I've got the same issue here with 5.3 release.

Is it possible to save preferences for each application that is docked to ~/.config/KDockerrc?

For version 5.1 and above, per-application and global settings are stored wherever Qt defaults to. For me, it's "~/.config/com.kdocker/KDocker.conf" but there's no need to edit that.

Set Icon ... ( e.g. for "DockedApp4" ) Save settings ... ( "DockedApp4 only" option -- because Global (all new) would be silly ;) )

OK, so there seems to be a bug in the menu display.

The first time I right-click on a docked icon I get the below, the Save settings item is cut off:

The second time I right-click on the docked icon I get the full menu with the Save settings item.

Not sure if this is a Plasma/kwin issue or kdocker.

Wow, that's awful. I've never seen that from KDocker or from any other app that I can recall. I rely on QMenu to do all those calculations for me. No warnings in the docs. I assume you compiled it yourself; please show kdocker -v output for Qt version.

Not much help from these search results: QMenu opens first time off screen How to prevent QMenu from going out of the main window

I didn't compile myself, this one is from the Solus repository.

kdocker -v
KDocker version: 5.2
Using Qt version: 5.15.2

How it's compiled by the Solus team: https://dev.getsol.us/source/kdocker/browse/master/package.yml

[Justinzobel]

I might compile 5.3 and test.

[Justinzobel]

Same with 5.3 unfortunately.

5.5 has changes to how the tray icon is read from the window and works better now.
