Gnome 3.12 Support #17

Closed 183amir closed 10 years ago

183amir commented 10 years ago

Could you please add support for Gnome 3.12?

ikalnytskyi commented 10 years ago

Hello @183amir. Thanks for using my extension. Unfortunately, I don't have GNOME 3.12 on my system, so I can't help you right now. But I'll try to do it in some virtual machine.

BTW, have you try to change shell-version value in metadata.json?

Hello Igor,

It loads and shows up but does not work always. For example I tried to hide the universal access icon and it disappeared after a shell restart. But I cannot hide some icons. Here is a list of icons that are possible to hide them: activities, appMenu, dateMenu, a11y, keyboard, aggregateMenu, weather These icons however cannot be hidden: Caffeine, workrave-applet, gpaste, legacy sys icons in the panel using top icons extension,appindicators such as appindicator-chrome_app_indicator_1

Also, changing the settings from the settings dialog changes nothing. One more thing, hiding and showing icons requires a shell restart.

Ok, thank you. :) I'll try to fix it on Monday, using Ubuntu 14.04 + GNOME 3.12.

Hi @183amir! I've just commited a fix. Could you please try version from the repo? If it's ok for you, I'll publish it in the extension directory.

Thank you! It is working great now. :+1: :) The only problem I see now is that I cannot hide legacy sys tray icons (I just want a few of sys tray icons at the top panel) that are in the panel using the TopIcons extension (https://extensions.gnome.org/extension/495/topicons/). However, I think this was also the behavior in Gnome shell 3.10. Hence, I should just probably file this in another issue here or if you think this is not possible, I can request this behavior in TopIcons extension.
