Bug description

Single monitor configuration.

Grouped window list is configured to

  • Group windows by application
  • Show windows from all workspaces
  • Button label: Application name

Nemo is pinned to the window list. When I switch around between workspaces in any manner, the "Files" icon in the window list randomly loses its "Files" label and becomes just the application icon (and the counter badge if the are multiple Nemo windows).

Steps to reproduce

Open Nemo. Observe button with the icon and the "Files" label.
Switch between workspaces, everything seems ok.
Pin Nemo to the window list, switch around. Everything is still ok.

Now close all Nemo windows. Something weird happens at this point. On some workspaces the Nemo icon is just the icon. On some - it's the icon and an ellipsis. On some it's the icon and "Files" but there is a large left margin in the label.

There seems to be no correlation between what kind of button I get in the window list and whether there is or there isn't a Nemo window on the current workspace.

This also wreaks havoc on switching between windows of other apps with

  • Left click action: Cycle windows

as the changed Nemo button causes the list to shift and now there's a different icon under the mouse pointer and the next click switches to another app, not to the next window of the app I was cycling trough.

Expected behavior

Nemo's button in the window list always shows the application name as configured.
