UXDeskTopDock behavior ?

Jimmy,

You were correct, the problem was that I am launching in a UXStackItem and didn't have a groupname or unique windowname property set. The documentation for GroupName should be augmented to reflect the situation when using a UXStackItem within a UXDockButton.

Thanks again!

Hi Ross,

Nice application, thanks for sharing the video.

There are a number of possibilities as to why the "icon" in the Dock is not removed when the window is closed. First of all, do you assign an identical WindowName or WindowGroupName to more than one window?

It's important to note that UXDesktop automatically manages the UXDesktopDockButton (and vice versa) when they are integrated. A button may represents an application, which can be identified and mapped through a number of approaches. Click here to learn more about the window identity concept.

The bottomline is that, the button in the UXDesktopDock may fail to remove when the associated window is closed if there are other applications or windows that "still" associated to the button, which maybe linked through WindowName, WindowGroupName, ApplicationUri or ApplicationID.

Hope this helps,
Jimmy

Please see the attached video, when I launch a UXWindow from a UXStackItem, I see the icon appear on the desktop, however, when I close that window, the icon stays behind. Does anyone know how to get it to remove the closed window?

Thanks,

Ross
