For example: I have multiple Firefox profiles (by running Firefox with one of the following options: --ProfileManager, '-P' or '-p') but they all appear as one app.

Hi,
that's because they run under the same app ID, thus Resources can't distinguish between them.

Sorry for the long wait. Life and such.

I see. To clarify - my setup uses .desktop file actions for each profile. They run under different PIDs, but they still belong to the same group/app id, as you suggested.

.desktop file actions coud however have an exception, which could look like this:

Then again, the app would look a bit less minimalistic.

I believe there's unfortunately not really a way to see which .desktop action has spawned which process. Determining which application a process belongs to is already more of an educated guess by Resources than anything else, at least for non-Flatpak apps. :/
