There was no way for E to match the original .desktop to the window as the exec doesn't match and there is probably not StartupWMClass in the original .desktop. E does some tracking on apps if they've been started via the .desktop, but this info is lost if you restart IIRC. > > 2009/8/31 Atton Jonathan <jonathan.atton <at> gmail.com> > > > Some times ago I had this problem : the .desktop file was copied in > > ~/.local/application.
