Working with Chrome "applications"
Friday, January 16, 2009 by weatherdon | Discussion: Object Desktop
Hi,
I installed ObjectDock for the first time yesterday. I have a couple of Chrome applications (one for gmail and one for pandora), which show up as shortcuts with their own icons and appear on the task bar with their own icons when running.
When I use Object Desktop, both pandora and gmail use the same icons, and if I change the icon for pandora, then gmail's icon changes as well. Is there any way to have these "applications" use different icons.
Thanks
Peter

Yep, Chrome is using the site's favicon.
I tried the fix you suggested, and it worked but it also changed the icon of another (different) Chrome application that I had open.
Do I need to do something other than this post to invoke support.
Thanks
Peter

Chrome is 1) new and 2) non-standard.

So Chrome is using the sites favicon? And the taskbar is picking that up but OD is using the app icon?
Right click on the icons inthe dock and select the last option "Dock entry Properties". At the bottom you can change teh icon to whatever you want. If that doesn't work . . dunno . . time to invoke support.
