Change jdownloader icon of the launcher

Question

This is what I see in the launcher when I open JDownloader

I don't want to create a launcher that always stay in the dashboard, I only want see the apropiated icon when open JD.

Answer 1

I suggest you report a bug, because this is a common problem with applications that use wrappers to launch.

JDownloader is a java application and uses a wrapper script, so it's going to be difficult to fix this issue, unless Unity is modified so it can track this better.

Answer 2

open a terminal and write this:

sudo nano /usr/share/applications/jdownloader.desktop

add this line at the end of the file:

StartupWMClass=jd-Main

save it, and launch JDownloader
