No. There does not appear to be a problem adding launcher that way.

Assuming the problem might be related to specific applications, I tested 
with three that have given me the problem using drag and drop.

1. *       COMMAND:    calibre --using library "Fiction"*
             NAME "Fiction Library"
             ICON  ~/.local/share/icons/calibre-fiction.jpg
             CONTAINER = MEDIA  (sub-dock)
         where there are two existing similar launchers in the same 
container differing in library parameter, NAME and ICON.

2. *      COMMAND:     zim 
"/home/johnb/Documents/Doc.Critical/Brain/zimWIKI/zim-BRAIN/notebook.zim" *
             NAME "zim-LENR"
             ICON  ~/.local/share/icons/calibre-fiction.jpg
             CONTAINER = BRAIN (sub-dock)
         where there are three existing similar launchers in the same 
container.

3. *COMMAND: **firefox https://www.wunderlist.com/#/lists/inbox**
*            NAME "WunderList"
             ICON  ~/.local/share/icons/calibre-fiction.jpg
             CONTAINER = BRAIN  (sub-dock)
         where there is one existing similar launcher in a different 
container (main dock).

There was no problem with these three.  All three of these created 
problems in the past in two cases:
             A. Existing launcher on menu (Linux Mint Cinnamon) copied 
to desktop, modified then D&D to cairo-dock and edit into proper container.
             B. New launcher created directly on desktop then D&D to 
cairo-dock and edit into proper container.

Thank you for the prompt attention.

Title:
  New launcher is not inserted correctly if there are existing
  launcher(s) for the same app with different name, command parameters
  and icon.

Status in Cairo-Dock : Core:
  New

Bug description:
  Cairo-Dock V3.4.0 
  Linux Mint (Cinnamon) 17.1

  New launcher is not inserted correctly when there is(are) existing
  launcher(s) for the same app with different name, command parameters
  and icon.

  1. On the desktop create a launcher:

     NAME:             Anki-SOPHIA
     COMMAND:    anki "~/Anki/Users/SOPHIA"
     ICON IMAGE:  ~/.local/share/icons/anki-sophia.jpg  

     Drag and drop onto CD subDock "LEARNING".
     Everything is correct.

  2.  Do it all again

     NAME:             Anki-JOHN
     COMMAND:    anki "~/Anki/Users/JOHN"
     ICON IMAGE:  ~/.local/share/icons/anki-john.jpg

     Drag  and drop on C-D main Dock or subDock "LEARNING".

     You get a duplicate of #1.

     Same if you d&d the generic icon (launcher) for the app from
  desktop or sys menu.

      You CAN edit the incorrect launcher in C-D and correct it.

     You CAN create a correct new launcher directly with C-D "ADD" but
  it defaults to the last custom icon defined rather than the app's
  generic icon.

     Not tested with other apps.

  TIA
