Doesn't work with gnome-shell 40 #70

Dear developer,

Any chance you will make this work with gnome 40.x.

I am using Fedora 34 with gnome 40.1.0

Hope to have support soon. Thanks.

There's no support for GNOME 40 at the moment.

The Settings.ui file is generated through Glade for GTK3 and needs to be ported to GTK4. It's over 1000 lines of code.

To add, Glade doesn't support GTK4 (I am unsure if it ever will). Alternatively, editing the XML files manually (even after conversion through gtk4-builder-tool) is very time consuming and I am not willing to do that. However, I am hopeful that Cambalache UI Maker will be a decent alternative for GTK4 based UI. Waiting on a release.

Summary of the below: It works in GNOME 41.1 except for "Indicator Preferences."

I had this installed on Manjaro for years - thank you. The menu and turning on/off pointer devices continues to work on current Manjaro's GNOME 41.1. Only "Indicator Preferences" fails with:

Gtk.BuilderError: /home/pkehl/.local/share/gnome-shell/extensions/touchpad-indicator@orangeshirt/Settings.ui:46:39 Invalid property: GtkBox.margin_left
