--- Comment #2 from Christian Authmann christian@authmann.de 2008-01-07 13:19:57 --- re-reading this old bug report, it looks like I didn't express myself clearly, sorry for that. I'll try to clarify.
This feature request only applies to the "virtual desktop" feature of wine, as configurable in winecfg -> "Graphics", "Emulate a virtual desktop", or by starting wine using
wine explorer.exe /desktop=<Name>,<Resolution> <application.exe>
pre-0.9.11, the behaviour was to set the window title to the name of the first application to open the virtual desktop. That didn't "account for multiple programs" at all.
From 0.9.12 onward and including the now-current 0.9.52, the window title of
the virtual desktop is simply set to "Wine Desktop", which is consistent, but doesn't allow my WM to distinguish multiple virtual desktops at the same time. My request is to add the name that was passed to explorer.exe (if any) to the window title, resulting in "Wine Desktop: <Name>". There doesn't need to be any dynamic change of window titles based on focus.
It should be a simple change for anyone familiar with that code, but I was unable to pinpoint the location where the window title is actually set. As you're currently busy weeding out bugs, and as there doesn't seem to be anyone else who cared, a WONTFIX is fine with me.
