[opensuse-gnome] lack of visual feedback
The lack of visual feedback from apps like pidgin or skype is disgusting. Does upstream have some cool new thing cooking for such apps that is just not yet in 3.16? Empathy is appearently still in early development stage. The import wizard is drawn incorrectly, the UI looks odd in many places, it will most likely not import the history of other apps. And the visual feedback it provides is odd as well. There is that topicons extension which is supposed to move the app icons out of that silly tray from the lower left corner. But it does not work for me. Does it work for anyone else? Appearently the API changed and noone bothered to update the extension. I tried the variants from Rub4ek/topiconsmod and anarsoul/topIcons.

Did you try https://extensions.gnome.org/extension/495/topicons/ first? It seems to be working for some users. -- Hans Petter -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-gnome+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-gnome+owner@opensuse.org

How can it work without adjusting for current gnome-shell version number? Some search results suggest that some "legacy-tray{ boarder-width: val} " provided by themes must be adjusted. I dont find similar strings. Instead of guessing it would help to understand how the icons must be moved from A to B, and how that process can be debugged. Right now I lack the time and energy to dig into that. Olaf -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-gnome+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-gnome+owner@opensuse.org

It's supposed to support 3.16, as per the metadata at least. If something's changed in gnome-shell, I wouldn't know what. The extensions aren't using a well-defined API -- it's more of a "rummage through internal structures" model. I'd take a look in ~/.local/share/gnome-shell/extensions/ and move away everything that's broken/not in use, then file a bug against the extension if it doesn't start working. Hope you get it sorted out :) -- Hans Petter -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-gnome+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-gnome+owner@opensuse.org
