Description

Describe the bug CopyQ works perfect. Desktop icon shows in "dashboard" (if I right-click on CopyQ app in my Applications Menu > Add to dashboard), but when CopyQ is started, the icon displayed in the tray is a grayish image that doesn't have anything to do with CopyQ. I guess it has something to do with "Qt", whatever that is, because here's what I have in CopyQ logs: Warning [2022-09-08 14:47:54.639] <Server-9504>: [qt.qpa.xcb] QtWarning: QXcbConnection: XCB error: 3 (BadWindow), sequence: 8669, resource id: 21053800, major code: 40 (TranslateCoords), minor code: 0. I added a CopyQ svg icon in my theme but that didn't change a thing. How could I have the right icon? It's not much, but enough to bother me and thus to not want to use it. Thanks!

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Install CopyQ
  2. Start CopyQ
  3. See wrong icon in tray

Expected behavior See same CopyQ icon as in dashboard

Contributor guide

Research direction
Investigate how the tray icon is set in CopyQ, check platform specific icon loading (e.g., using QIcon::fromTheme), and examine if the warning indicates a missing or fallback icon. Look into Qt platform theme integration on XFCE.
