Darn. Sorry, it was worth a try. I have to say I am REALLY happy to see so much progress on your window manager. Great stuff! I look forward to trying it out. :)

I have made a change that uses a png file as the icon instead of the tiff and this appears to resolve the issue I showed in my attachment. This is not a general fix as there are a few other apps that show this issue. One of them is InnerSpace in the GAP project. Please give this a try.GCOn Sat, Oct 17, 2020 at 7:11 AM Gregory Casamento <greg.casamento@gmail.com> wrote:
Alessandro,The SystemPreferences icon has always had an issue with WindowMaker. It's just a normal tiff, but, for some reason, it shows up as color inverted when docked in the WindowMaker dock, but normal when the application is started. When you first start an application in GNUstep the icon gets written to ~/GNUstep/Library/WindowMaker/CachedPixmaps when the application is launched. I forget where precisely in the code this occurs.I believe this corruption might have something to do with your problem as the second time it is invoked it reads the version of the icon that was cached in the directory I indicated above.There are a number of possible solutions:1) Fix the tiff so that WindowMaker doesn't have an issue2) Fix WindowMaker (or GNUstep, in case the caching is happening in our code... I am not sure it is)I have included a screenshot of what is happening on my system to illustrate what I'm referring to. Please find it attached. I hope some of this additional information helps.Yours, GCOn Sat, Oct 17, 2020 at 4:32 AM Alessandro Sangiuliano <alex22_7@hotmail.com> wrote:This morning I had more time to do better test.I have to add that in my case is just SystemPreferences icon that is not showed at first start.With Gorm and ProjectCenter, the window is showed as expected at first run!Maybe is just a little bug relative to SystemPreferences in my case, or just some request that SystemPreferences is doing and I'm not handling.Alex.Da: Gnustep-dev <gnustep-dev-bounces+alex22_7=hotmail.com@gnu.org> per conto di Alessandro Sangiuliano <alex22_7@hotmail.com>Inviato: sabato 17 ottobre 2020 04:59A: undefined <gnustep-dev@gnu.org>Cc: undefined <gnustep-dev@gnu.org>Oggetto: R: windowmaker - application icon missing at first startI wrote this email some days ago to Fred privately, because I was thinking that the problem was relative to my window manager that is young and ealyy stage, so i post here too bcause the problem is quite similar.Hi Fred,I write becaus ethe gnustep support in uroswm is almost completed, but there are few things to fix, actually in the miniwindow managment. Explain it with words would be a bit complex especially with my english, so I made a gif pic to share with you.Here is the lin that will expire after one month:Now i explain the problem in steps amd you will noticed them in the gif:1) First time run uroswm2) First time a GNUstep App3) When the App is first time started the miniwindow on the left-bottom corner doesn't draw the icon, or better, it draws the icon but disappers quite soon. The icon just appears for some instants and then disappers.4) I close the App5) I run again the app6) At this point, the App is started for the second time, ll works as expecetd and the miniwindow draws the icon ans show it as expected.Don't be scared by bad colors in the gif i just set low quality to the recorder.Why at the first start of theapp the icon is not painted as we expects? Maybe at the first run GS is doing some particular requests or setting/asking for soe extended window manager hints?Thank you,AlexDa: Gnustep-dev <gnustep-dev-bounces+alex22_7=hotmail.com@gnu.org> per conto di Riccardo Mottola <riccardo.mottola@libero.it>Inviato: venerdì 16 ottobre 2020 11:40Oggetto: windowmaker - application icon missing at first startHi!I noticed we recently have a strange behaviour, which is slightlydifferent from setup (= installation on different computers) to setup I haveThe first time I start a GNUstep application with windowmaker (I meanthe first GNUstep app started ever after X11 start essentially) it has abad icon.- on some setup it has a "generic" icon by windowmaker- on other setups it has a black looking icon, as only the "mask" of theicon, the contours are drawnA restart of the app and then starting any other app, fixes that.This was not happening before. I think it is related to at least thiscommit - merge:Can you reproduce?
