grouped window list problems

Post by dhdurgee »

I am seeing a few problems with the grouped windows list.

The first problem I am seeing is that when I have to restart Cinnamon the grouping is broken for some applications that I have on the panel. Two of them in particular are the Oracle VM VirtualBox Manager and File Commander (FC/L) and I vaguely remember some others. The only way to get this corrected after a Cinnamon restart is to close the application and restart it from the panel.

The second problem is that some applications are incorrectly grouped with the terminal windows. One in particular is Midnight Commander, which I have on the panel. When I open Midnight Commander from the panel it is grouped with the terminal windows as opposed to associating with its panel icon.

This is with Cinnamon 4.8.6 on linux mint 20.1 x64 here.

I had an issue with Grouped Window List a few months ago during 20.1 Beta, reported, the dev asked for some more info, and it got fixed in 2-3 days!
