Activities button on multiple desktops #43

Closed Corben78 closed 6 years ago

Corben78 commented 6 years ago

I upgraded from Ubuntu 16.04 to 18.04 and found this extension useful to have a nice Ubuntu logo instead of the "Activities" letters in the top left corner. I'm also using the multi monitors add-on extension, so I have the top panel on all monitors, as it was with Unity before. Unfortunately there the "Activities" still remains and is not replaced by the configured logo. Is there a way to replace "Activities" on the other monitors with the logo too?

The Activities Button is a part of the top panel. I looked at the multi monitor add-on extension code. The multi monitor add-on extension is not compatible with the Activities Configurator. The "Activities" text you are seeing is created by the multi monitor add-on extension in panels that are used instead of the original shell code. Gnome Shell extensions are actually patches to the shell code. The last patch applied is what you get.

Thanks for you reply. Too bad the multi monitor add-on creates its own panels, that are not affected by the activities configurator. First I thought, the order in which the addons are installed does matter, but it didn't change anything. I guess the multi monitor add-on isn't maintained any more, so I don't have high hopes it would be patched to become compatible with this addon.
