Why are the app icons and tabs greyed out?

Sleeping apps and groups are shown in grey

When a group, app or tab hasn't been used for a while or your machine is running low on resources, Wavebox might decide to sleep it. To show that it is sleeping, Wavebox greys the icon out. The next time you wake it up—by clicking on it—it loads and returns to full solid color.
