Question about Visual consistency with the rest of the quick settings, part 2 #5

Greetings @LorenzoMorelli ,

I wasn't quite sure if I should comment on an already closed issue or open a new one, so I've just opened a new one for now, but feel free to close this one at any time if need be.

As for the issue, in regards to consistency, the icon in the extension is now consistent with Gnome, but I wonder if it's in the right placement and if it can be moved or adjusted or not, please let me know. In the top panel, when you click on Performance, you have options for Performance, Balance, and Power Saver, and which ever option you have selected, it will be displayed with a white solid circle icon to the left of the selection. With the GPU Extension however, any selection made, the white solid circle icon is displayed on the right side.

I'm wondering if it's at all possible to move the white circle icon to the left, like how it appears with the Performance setting, or if that's not possible, please do let me know. I think if it's possible to move it to the left side, that will be much more consistent and I believe easier overall to see the option you have selected. If this cannot be done for whatever reason(s), please let me know as well, I am merely curious and inquiring if this is possible or not. As always, thanks for making this extension available, I am enjoying using it very very much and I do appreciate your work very much too.

Below is the default Gnome Performance setting that has the indicator (the white solid circle icon) on the left side. This is how Gnome defaults the selection on the left side:

Below is the GPU Extension, which shows the selection indicator on the right side, which differs from the default. If it's possible to adjust this and move it to the left side so that it comes before "Nvidia" instead of after it, please let me know, thank you.

Hi, first of all thank you for your suggest. I really appreciate it! I also think that it should be better as you suggested but I don't think it is as straightforward as it could look like. If you have a solution let me know with a pull request!
