Flatpak does not auto-start minimized
Describe the bug I want copyq to start minimized in system tray.
To Reproduce I found an older bug about this that said to:
- delete ~/.config/autostart/copyq.desktop
- run "copyq config autostart true"
I deleted the desktop file and then ran flatpak run --command="bash" com.github.hluk.copyq Inside I ran /app/bin/copyq config autostart true
It said "true", but now it doesnt start at all anymore after a reboot.
Expected behavior Copyq started in maximized mode before, I just want it to start minimized

Version, OS and Environment

- Desktop environment, window manager Cinnamon, X11
Flatpak version of the app does not support the autostart option. This functionality should be provided by the desktop environment instead. See #2517.
Well, I have the autostart option already configured in my Desktop environment, that's how it was set up before.
But I can not tell it to start minimized, because there is no command line option I can set in the start command line parameters executed by the DE.
If you could add a command line option to start minimized, that works with the Flatpak version my issue would be solved.
Hmm, the app uses different desktop file when started explicitly from menu or launcher (it basically triggers copyq --start-server show) and when auto-started which is runs copyq without any arguments (which does not show the main window).
Not sure if I can define different desktop files (or commands) for the flatpak or handle it somehow in the app itself. :thinking:
Did you have time to look into, if you can implement this?
Nope. I would welcome any help. I don't know if there is a way to distinguish whether the app was started by the user or using the autostart feature. It would be then possible to modify the desktop file to handle both situations.
