#### Context On X11, the Settings window title displayed as `"Zed â██ Settings"` instead of "Zed — Settings"`. The em-dash (U+2014) was garbled because the window creation path only set the legacy `WM_NAME` property (Latin-1 encoded), but never set `_NET_WM_NAME` (UTF-8). Modern taskbars prefer `_NET_WM_NAME`, so without it they fell back to `WM_NAME` and misinterpreted the UTF-8 bytes as Latin-1. `set_title()` already sets both properties, which is why windows that update their title after creation (like the main workspace) were unaffected. The fix adds `_NET_WM_NAME` during window creation, matching what `set_title()` already does. #### Closes #51871 #### How to Review Single change in `crates/gpui_linux/src/linux/x11/window.rs` focus on the new `_NET_WM_NAME` property being set alongside the existing `WM_NAME` in `X11Window::new`. #### Self-Review Checklist - [x] I've reviewed my own diff for quality, security, and reliability - [ ] Unsafe blocks (if any) have justifying comments - [x] The content is consistent with the [UI/UX checklist](https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/blob/main/CONTRIBUTING.md#uiux-checklist) - [ ] Tests cover the new/changed behavior - [x] Performance impact has been considered and is acceptable #### Video [Screencast from 2026-03-19 11-19-45.webm](https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/ff810e37-90ac-4ce2-a8f5-ad83e66aa3b8) Release Notes: - Fixed garbled characters in window titles on Linux X11 (e.g., Settings window)
