Some applications are using the default wayland icon in my Task Switcher. There have been a number of threads about this kind of issue across various forums, but:
- the solutions are per application, making it untenable for less technical people
- the common “set desktop file name in window rules” workaround only works partially for me: the custom compile of firefox nightly i use, for example, only has its first window changed to the firefox icon.
- they have the same issue for the taskbar (icons-only task manager) as well, which has the correct icons for me
The latter point is what makes me hopeful there could be a generic solution. But so far I wasn’t able to figure out whether I can somehow influence how the Task Switcher chooses its icons, and whats different about the taskbar.
I would appreciate any ideas or help for a generic solution, including ideas for writing KWin scripts or similar.
