The work done by the MXLinux team is fabulous. I want to contribute something with this post.
I just want to share with you a way to solve the problem that I had with some programs (that use java), the application icon was not shown in the panel, only a gear was displayed.
I followed the steps of:
https://itsfoss.com/ubuntu-app-icon-missing/
It is related to
WM_CLASS property of the application
Although it says that it only works in gnome, in xfce in to me it worked in the following system:
