Show custom (non built-in) profiles in GNOME menus

[peter-lyons-kehl]

This is about CPU Power GUI icon either on

• the (usually) horizontal bar (which shows time, wifi, battery/turn off...) - left/primary click, or
• the Dock or Dash (whichever it is, I have them merged) - right/context click in version 1.0.0. in GNOME (v. 41.2 on current Manjaro).

Currently those clicks show a menu

• Switch to performance profile
• Switch to balanced profile (If you're performing an exact match in the code, beware: Dock/Dash bar icon has "Performance" and "Balanced" starting with a capital letter.)

Could these two menus also show custom profiles (as listed in the app itself), please?

I will have a look into it.

Good news, I tried adding custom profile menu items on the tray icon. It works. I will push the changes soon. As for the dock menu, these actions are defined in both the code and the desktop file. I haven't checked if it would work without adding the entries on the desktop file.

As a temp workaround I will add a custom action to apply a profile. Then, one can add the action with their profile on the desktop file manually (by copying the desktop file from /usr/share/applications into ~/.local/share/applications and adding the action).

The action can look like

[Desktop Action Set Profile]
Name=Switch to custom profile
Exec=gapplication action org.rnd2.cpupower_gui Set-Profile custom-profile-name

I have pushed the changes mentioned above to feat-menu-profiles branch. Haven't checked about Gnome dash actions yet.
