Application settings are overwritten #150

Closed toupeira closed 2 months ago

toupeira commented 6 years ago

Expected Behavior

Settings are stored per application.

Current Behavior

Saving the application settings overwrites the settings of all the defined apps with the currently selected app's settings. I looked at the locations key in dconf to verify it's changed there as well, and if I fix the values there manually the behaviour is correct, so this looks like a bug in the prefs dialog.

Steps to Reproduce (for bugs)

  1. Add application with some settings
  2. Add a second application with different settings
  3. Save the settings
  4. Select the first application, which now also shows the second application's settings

Context

I'd like to have some apps split to the left, and some to the right.

That's kind of an known issue. The save button only saves the current configuration. I have never tried to add multiple apps and save once. It should work as expected if you save the settings before adding a second application

Yeah, I noticed once I had my initial setup I could add more applications one at a time without problems.

I am saving between apps and the settings still look to be copied to previous apps. Pretty sure it is a bug, not a UI issue, because closing and reopening the settings resulted in it working as expected.

Closing this, as application based config is no longer supported by this extension in gnome-shell v46
