Papirus-icon-theme: Missing VirtualBox icon in VM window

Created on 17 Mar 2020  路  3Comments  路  Source: PapirusDevelopmentTeam/papirus-icon-theme

  • Icon Theme: Papirus-Dark-Maia
  • Distribution (version): Manjaro 19.0.2
  • Desktop environment: GNOME 3.34.4
  • Installing method: from (pamac) community repo
  • App name (version): VirtualBox

When I launch my virtual machine (windows 10) from VirtualBox application it creates separate windows, without icon. But if I switch to the default Adwaita icon theme, this icons appears and shows as it should be.
When Papirus Icon theme applied VirtualBox icon on VM window shows when I try to drag and drop it somewhere

This issue is not releted to icon themes. It releted to Dash to Dock and other dock apps.

Create ~/.local/share/applications/virtualbox-machine.desktop file with the following content to fix that:

[Desktop Entry]
Encoding=UTF-8
Version=1.0
Name=Virtual Machine
GenericName=Virtual Machine
GenericName[de]=Virtuelle Maschine
GenericName[ru]=袙懈褉褌褍邪谢褜薪邪褟 屑邪褕懈薪邪
Type=Application
Icon=virtualbox
Categories=Emulator;System;
Actions=Manager;
StartupWMClass=VirtualBox Machine
Comment=Run several virtual systems on a single host computer
NoDisplay=true

you try StartUpWMClass?
How it's worked with original Papirus icon theme and Adwaita or hicolor?

But if I switch to the default Adwaita icon theme, this icons appears and shows as it should be.
