Debian 11 / Gnome 3.38 :

Would be nice to have a hide icon feature

Doesn't work on Manjaro Linux, conflict with Looking Glass Button by glerro and maybe other extensions.

Hi,
I saw gnome-shell warning when I was testing extensions in Gnome 40:

Some code called array.toString() on a Uint8Array instance. Previously this would have interpreted the bytes of the array as a string, but that is nonstandard. In the future this will return the bytes as comma-separated digits. For the time being, the old behavior has been preserved, but please fix your code anyway to explicitly call ByteArray.toString(array). ... .local/share/gnome-shell/extensions/[email protected]/extension.js":112:23

After googling I made the following change and this message was gone:

// 1
...
const ByteArray = imports.byteArray; // add at the beginning
...

// 2
// ... and line 112 (now 113 because line is added at the top)
// let s_data = String(data).split("\n");
let s_data = ByteArray.toString(data).split('\n');

Hope this will help ... and thank you for your extension.
Cheers!

Fantastic extension, thank you.

The icons don't show up with default Adwaita icons, Fedora 36:

Maybe use these ones instead?

go-up-symbolic
go-down-symbolic
edit-delete-symbolic

Hello Andia89,

Within the last two weeks the extension has been crashing. It seems to happen after I unlock my screen. The error in Extension Manager is "indicator.get_parent() is null"

I am using Ubuntu 22.04lts.

Thanks for creating this extension. And, thank you for looking into this issue.

Would you mind pushing this extension to extensions.gnome.org to give users an easier installation process and get a wider range of people to be able to use this extension?

I can't update my Ubuntu20.04 to 22.04 now, but I really confused about the order of the panel, especially when come back from lock Ubuntu.
I try to use extensions.gnome.org, but it doesn't support Ubuntu20.04 and gnome3.36 anymore. And I try to install the extensions manual from your github and extensions.gnome.org (choose 3.36 and 5 or 6 to download old version of extension), but all these don't work, it seems can't enable the extension. And I tried like issue #1 , to get icons name, but it still doesn't work.
I noticed your wonderful extension was released before 2019, so it must be some way to use it on Ubuntu20.04 gnome3.36, could
I get some help from you? π__π π__π π__π

How could i move something that is in the 'Left panel' to 'Right panel', let's say?

Hi, I’ve noticed that if I use this extension, it breaks Clock menu position setting from Just Perfection (among other things I would like to have my clock/date menu position to the far right). It works after setting it up, but when I lock/unlock screen, it resets to center. It does not happen if I disable Order Icons. It’s broken even if I try to delete date menu from the Center panel section.

Relevant issue on Just Perfection:
https://gitlab.gnome.org/jrahmatzadeh/just-perfection/-/issues/173

Add a way to add back the indicators that were removed previously. For example, by mistake I had removed the App Name indicator, now it has moved completely to the front and is not visible on the list, and hence can't be moved. Re-adding the indicator would be helpful. Also, disabling could be added so that the indicator doesn't show up in the panel but is still there in the list (and is greyed out) and can be enabled any time we want. This would allow us to delete the indicators without losing the order they were previously present.

This is a security flaw as this extension makes the app icon and application name visible on the lock screen. I may be showing other user data in the top bar, not sure about that.

Also, this extension doesn't respect the changes made by other extensions.

Adding key file is tricky and not everyone is so technical to make this file. You can add this feature in the setting option for this extension (by running journalctl .. command) and then giving user the option to rearrange the order.

Like the idea for this application.

Ubuntu 22.04. The OpenWeather extension shows up in the center. But, when I try and change the order of the center with your extension, OpenWeather doesn't show up so I cannot move it. Thanks for looking into this!

Hello,

I've noticed that when I enable this extension, the date menu becomes transparent.
This has already been reported, but the workaround there didn't help me: #8

I'm also using Dash to Panel, just like in that other issue.

This extension is very useful. Thanks for it! Any idea when Gnome 46 will be supported?

I correctly understood that you can change the order of these icons?

Tell me your extension will work with a gnome shell 3.34?
You can show an example of what the ordering-override.keyfile file should be.

Greetings,

When I enable the extension in Ubuntu 22.04, I noticed that the date menu still has its allocated space but doesn't show up.

I checked previous issues and notice that one of them had dateMenu showing up in the Center Panel, but it's not here in my case. Everything is in the Right Panel and no sign for dateMenu.

-loved the script nevertheless! 😋

It is possible that legacy indicators and icons (such as those of Wine) are grouped all at once, because whenever I start another instance of the application, another entry is created in the extension's configuration menu.

Thanks again for the excellent work on this extension.
