icon_customizer VS awesomewm-vim-tmux-navigator

Since i dont use many qt applications i tried to fix the icons with this but that doesnt work either.

Awesome uses _NET_WM_ICON property of an X client to get an icon (look for client.icon), but for the tasklist it is possible to override the icon with one you define yourself. There are different approaches, but if you are looking for third party module u/kolo1337 has one here.

You can also try my icon_customizer module, which supports defining a fallback icon now.

You can also check out my module icon_customizer that allows you to define an icon for a class.

I asked the same question on this sub about a month ago. Here's the thread. Basically, the client applications themselves determine what icon they use, not Awesome. Some apps always use the icon from your GTK icon theme while others do not. u/kolo1337 wrote a module for manually setting the icon for specific clients. I've been using it and it works well.

I've been excited about making the leap into AwesomeWM with https://github.com/intrntbrn/awesomewm-vim-tmux-navigator as currently w/o I often mistakenly use my vim/tmux bindings when trying to switch windows to say firefox.

It can be done with awesomewm with https://github.com/intrntbrn/awesomewm-vim-tmux-navigator

https://github.com/intrntbrn/awesomewm-vim-tmux-navigator does this with the Awesome Window Manager.

Use a customizable window manager (awesomewm, for example) so you can seamlessly tile and move between operating system windows, and put your work into multiple tmux sessions in separate terminal windows… so have tall+narrow pane in a tmux terminal on left, and the horizontal panes in a separate tmux session & terminal window on the right. https://github.com/intrntbrn/awesomewm-vim-tmux-navigator is made for this.
