Our application sets a window icon on the main frame using
self.SetIcon(wx.Icon())
On X11, it seems to use this icon as the application icon when running (taskbar, alt-tabbing, etc). However, on Wayland, it’s just a default blank document icon.
Anyone know how to get this to work on Wayland?
For reference, here’s the issue page I’m trying to debug, might have more useful information: https://github.com/pyfa-org/Pyfa/issues/1607
Thanks!
I believe that you just need to create a .desktop file that includes an "Icon=xyz" line. Then install the .desktop file to /usr/share/applications and run update-desktop-database.

Hi,
After the creation of the main frame add this code:
favicon = wx.Icon(“imgs/logo24.ico”, wx.BITMAP_TYPE_ICO, 128,128)
wx.Frame.SetIcon(self,favicon)

Are you sure? I just tried with a 128x128 icon, but it did not make a difference on Wayland.

But on Ubuntu 16 you usually don't have Wayland and 18.04 is X by default.
The result of 'echo $XDG_SESSION_TYPE' should be 'wayland'.

OK, but only on wxPython Classic, which uses gtk2 which runs in X compatibility mode...
So for Phoenix there's no solution yet. But at least that shows that it's technically possible without a .desktop file.

That's strange.
To be sure:
- you're using the wheel from Index of /wxPython4/extras/linux/gtk3/ubuntu-16.04 ?
- you're not using a custom build with gtk2? (this is available as option and also is the default if gtk3 is not found)
- echo '$XDG_SESSION_TYPE' really returns 'wayland'?
