Renaming is not persistent #44

Closed Maxga closed 2 months ago

Maxga commented 2 months ago

Hi, I'm on Gnome46 and it seems like the renaming of workspaces is not persistent. I was able to change the name of workspace 1 to something of my choice.

However, if I then switch to workspace 2 and rename it, the new name is shown, but upon switching back to workspace 1, the name is then set back to "2".

Hi @Maxga!

Maybe you have enabled "Smart Workspace Names" in the extensions "Behavior" settings? In that case, this might be intended behavior.

Otherwise, I don't know what could cause the issue. You could try monitoring the saved names using dconf-editor:

dconf-editor /org/gnome/desktop/wm/preferences/workspace-names

You could also try watching the logs for gnome-shell and see if anything comes up:

journalctl -f -o cat /usr/bin/gnome-shell

Hi @christopher-l , I just did a fresh install of gnome, and now I dont face the problem anymore. I was switching from KDE to Gnome before, so I guess some residues created this issue. Or some font stuff, where it couldnt handle some fonts correctly? Hard to tell, anyways, cant reproduce anymore, thanks.
