-startintray corrupts main window

[sojusnik]

My aim is to launch Telegram minimized in the system tray (especially at startup), so therefore I launch it with

[directory]/Telegram -startintray

, but the content of the main window gets transparent (at system startup the window stays black), like shown in this video: https://mega.co.nz/#!btA0nShK!XDv9-T3Y27xlfmvWNNILxfoBYB6-wWa61mwhP8NWpbU

This video shows the black main window after a system startup: https://mega.co.nz/#!CgwlgJgJ!HChH7BhLdw1liUuWUaWFAxECU6uGkRtuuJ6SeT_VV2Q

Observed under Ubuntu Gnome 14.10 with Telegram 0.7.17.

I am running into the same issue. Please fix that.

Elementary OS Freya 0.3 (based on Ubuntu 14.04)

Seems to be seen as unimportant. My issue was just closed.
I knew that it was a request about a topic which had other open issues, but I never found an answer why it's not fixed yet. Is my workaround idea: #1820 not possible or just unwanted?

I fixed this on elementary OS the dirty way:

1. install wmctr
2. create a minimize.sh file with this content:
   wmctrl -c Telegram sleep 0.1 wmctrl -c Telegram sleep 0.1 wmctrl -c Telegram sleep 0.1 wmctrl -c Telegram sleep 0.1 wmctrl -c Telegram sleep 0.1 wmctrl -c Telegram sleep 0.1 wmctrl -c Telegram sleep 0.1 wmctrl -c Telegram sleep 0.1 wmctrl -c Telegram sleep 0.1 wmctrl -c Telegram sleep 0.1 wmctrl -c Telegram sleep 0.1 wmctrl -c Telegram sleep 0.1 wmctrl -c Telegram
3. Let it autostart after telegram (without -startintray parameter!)
   command is: " sh /home/....your_folder..../minimize.sh "

If it doesn't work for you try using these autostartnames (seems to be sth with alphabetical oder):

(z is the sh script)

Same problem in Ubuntu 15.10

Seems to be seen as unimportant

I think we need more votes for this issue 💥

I have the same problem :/
I'm using elementaryOS,

[fmmarzoa]

I am not sure if it is the same problem, but I have reached this through another bug that describes what it is happening to me too: in Ubuntu 16.04 it starts in the tray as expected, but if you click on the tray icon nothing happens. You have to click with the right mouse button and click on "Minimize to try" once so the "Open Telegram option" starts working as expected, otherwise no Telegram messages window will be shown.

Version 0.10.1 here.

I have experimented the same issue on elementayOS. Altough it seems a secondary problem, it's really annoying for me.

Im using Ubutu 16.04 with Unity and experience same odd behaviour than @fmmarzoa. Any updates about this topic? Version 0.10.11

Haha guys if you really want to fix it... seems like you need to use my "method"
I admit its pretty bad, but can it really be called stupid if it works? ;)

[Aokromes]

#422 ?

[jandrioli]

This main window corruption is still hapening in ubuntu 16.04. It's been 3 years !

[Aokromes]

[jandrioli]
