I don't know how dialogs and calltip popups behave on Gnome Shell. But I think we should do this at least for more or less long-lived windows such as stack viewer. On KDE when I added ``kw["class"] = 'Idle3'`` to ListedToplevel constructor, console and editor windows are grouped on taskbar, and stack viewer is separated (without this line all three windows are in the same group). > I expect that all ListedToplevels could be handled at once by adding the > following as the first line of ListedToplevel.__init__. May be, but this is not so simple. To be robust we should handle both 'class' and 'class_' keywords (and may be even '-class'). > What is wrong with simply adding classname to the Tk() call, as Roger > suggested in #13553. This affects only WM_CLASS of root window (which is withdrawn right after creation in IDLE). > Does KDE display 2 windows without name='Idle' in the toplevel call? Is this > a KDE or tk bug? ``tk = Tk(className='Idle3')`` creates first (root) window and ``top = Toplevel(tk, class_='Idle3')`` creates second window. The className argument affects root window (and some other things) and the class argument affects Toplevel window. Another example: >>> from tkinter import * >>> tk = Tk(className='Firefox') >>> top = Toplevel(tk, class_='Chromium-browser') Created two windows: one with title "firefox" and Firefox icon, and other with title "firefox" and Chromium icon. I argue that we should add className="Idle3" to every Tk constructor and class_="Idle3" to most (iv not every) Toplevel constructor. On Python 2 it should be "Idle2" or "Idle" (not sure). ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue22133> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
