I have a laptop connected to an external monitor. The internal display of the laptop is disabled as I only use the external one so the external one is the main display. The extension works great on the menu on this monitor. But sometimes I also need to enable the internal display. When I do, the quick toggles I removed on the main screen are all visible on the laptop screen. I use Dash to Panel extension to have the panel on all screens.

Hi @qwreey75 ,

I appreciate that you forked my extension at mymindstorm/gnome-volume-mixer! But, I noticed that you removed my original LICENSE file. Even though you have refactored a lot of the files related to gnome-volume-mixer, you must properly attribute the source of that code by complying with the original LICENSE file.

Regards,
@mymindstorm

Don't know if there is a reason why the notifications are in a separate popup (maybe so that you could move it above the main popup?). But I think it would look better if notifications were integrated into the main popup. There is an older GNOME mockup, which I think looks quite nice https://gitlab.gnome.org/Teams/Design/os-mockups/-/blob/master/system-status/quick-settings/quick-toggles-2.png

PS. a setting to move the notification position would be pretty good as well since it's kinda weird that notifications popup in the center but then end up being listed in the quick settings menu on the right. Although there are a few extensions which do that already e. g. just-perfection. So don't know if it's really needed...

I really don't like the fact that some options are only showing in some cases like the "do not disturb" when there is already a notification and the "InputStreamSlider" when you are already recording the sound.

I think many people want to be able to use these functions before they currently show up. Do you think it's possible to force them to always be displayed?

Would be cool if one could mute the input or output by clicking the specific icon. Also, being able to hide the input/output device description would make it look more compact.

I believe having the notifications appear not only smaller (to match the ones in the QS) but also to the right would make the notifications better integrate with the new notification panel position

Media controls always appear at the bottom of the menu. It would be nice to have an option to move it to the top, like with e.g. notifications.

The album art is slightly lower than it should be

Here is a screenshot of the current masster branch

Maybe the "do not disturb" and "clear" buttons would look better if they used the same layout as the native buttons from quick settings. Here is a very rough sketch I made.

Could be possible add more left/right padding to the "clear" button like the default one in the gs notification panel?

Hello,
So it seems that whenever I try to add an item to the Application Filtering list for the Volume Mixer feature, it simply refuses to add anything. Specifically, pressing the "+" icon shows the prompt to add a new application normally, but no matter what I type in there, once I press "Add" nothing happens; and the application continues to appear in the Volume Mixer. This happens both under the Block and Allow Filter modes, and I've even tried entering the direct path to applications or desktop entries, and it still doesn't work.
If makes any differences, I'm running Arch with Gnome 43.1 (though the Gnome version may have been obvious).

Please let me know if there's any logs or something I can provide you with, as I'd love to use the Volume Mixer feature if this gets fixed (otherwise my 15+ YouTube tabs that are always open make the Quick Settings menu unusably long...).

Oh, and while I'm here, I just wanted to let you know that this is an awesome extension! I greatly appreciate the level of customization it offers me, thanks for creating this. :)

Hi there,

On Ubuntu 22.10 with gnome version 43.0, I configure quick settings Quick Settings Tweaker and everything works fine.

Then when I log out, and log back in, none of the changes persist. The only way to get my changes working again are to disable and re-enable Quick Settings Tweaker again. Thanks!

Note: settings that don't persist are "Button Remover" configuration.

Here is a screenshot with the extension disabled (left) and the extension enabled (right)

Saw the note about Pulseaudio/Pipewire, just letting you know in my (extremely limited) testing Pipewire seems to work as expected.

When using the extensions around the borders of the notifications and the media control are weird things. Kinda looks like shadows / or artifacts. I don't know how to describe them best.

I have an weird issue with the extension. The Notification Panel is placed above the Quicksettings-Panel.
To me, this is very annoying because there is no fixed position for the Settings-Panel. Is there an option I'm missing?

Everything else is working so far, thank you for this nice Project!

It would be great to have an option to make the Quick Settings look more like libadwaita: with less border-radius.

Here's the code that does it in gnome-shell.css:

/* Quick Settings */
.quick-settings {
  padding: 12px;
  border-radius: 20px; }
.quick-toggle {
  border-radius: 12px;
  border: none; } /* I want to add borders like on the notifications and calendar popover but it is such a subtle difference I just won't bother with it */
.quick-menu-toggle .quick-toggle-arrow:ltr {
    border-radius: 0 12px 12px 0; }
.quick-menu-toggle .quick-toggle-arrow:rtl {
    border-radius: 12px 0 0 12px; }
.quick-toggle-menu {
  background-color: #353535;
  border-radius: 8px;
  padding: 12px;
  margin: 12px 12px 0; }

If can remove unuseful device(such as Virtual Sink in above pic) from selector, We can make the QS clear!

I disabled NMWirelessToggle and while it initially works, it "forgets" after reboot (the toggle remains on though).

Hi everyone!

I'm using this extension since Gnome 43 has been released for my distribution, and I love it! 😍
There are so many useful options to customize my Quick Settings panel... It's AMAZING! 🤩

But I'm facing a little problem:
When I enable the Media Control Widget, but not the Notification one, I have duplicated MPRIS controls!

One in the Gnome Notification panel	And one in the Quick Settings panel

So could it be possible to add an option to hide media controls in the stock notifications panel, in order to only have the one in the Quick Settings panel?

Hello, and thank you for the great extension.
However, I personally only want some of its functionality, like individual app volume control, but it seems like by enabling this extension it forces every single feature to be enabled, with no way to switch off some while leaving others on.

Would it be possible to add some control for every tab?

I love the work you've done, great job and thank you

Just silly thing, there is a notification indicator dot on the centre, It will make more sense if it's moved to right because there is nothing to see here if you click it ( funny thing, I mostly do click it :) )

so if notification is moved to quick-settings, the option to move indicator dot (not the banner, I like it on the centre) along with it would be appreciated.

here is how it looks now

From the os-mockups repo here.

title says everything

Hi @qwreey75,
first of all thank you so much for your work on this great extension!

I'd like to suggest a feature which I was using on previous gnome-shell versions through this extension.
I think it's very handy to adjust the night light strength according to many factors, for example if watching a movie, working, reading, and so on, instead of having to go to display settings all the time.

With the relocation of most features from the date menu to the quick settings menu (notifications, media controls, dnd), there is now a greater need for a keyboard shortcut to toggle the quick settings menu, which GNOME does not currently provide. The previously relevant shortcut that is provided is labeled "Show the notifications list" in GNOME Control Center, but only toggles the date menu and does not account for the relocation of the notifications list.
I'm wondering if it can be implemented as I think it is also relevant to this extension.

title says everything

stream title text label should have this style prop
text-overflow: ellipsis;

When I turn the integrated popup off, the padding around quick setting gets larger. When I turn it back on, this weird border appears. Perhaps this is not caused only by the extension (it may also be the theme's fault), but it seems worth investigating.

It would be great to be able to translate the entire extension.. as of today, the only files in the po directory contain one translatable string

what do i do ?

Currently there is no way to hide notifications when screen sharing is enabled if notifications are below QS toggles. An option to collapse notifications when DND is enabled or screen cast/share is enabled would be helpful

How to reproduce

1. In the extension settings, enable the wifi toggle and disable bluetooth and airplane mode ones
2. Use the wifi toggle to enable or disable the wifi

What is the expected result

The state of the wifi changes, nothing more

What happens instead

The wifi state changes as expected but the bluetooth and airplane mode toggles reappear, which is unexpected.

When two monitors are used, only the primary one has the Media Controls visible in the menu. On secondary monitor, it is still on the calendar tab.

Using volume mixer with Firefox and browsing Reddit or equivalent site while playing videos can accumulate streams until quick settings expands beyond vertical resolution of screen. A current work around this issue is filtering Firefox. If possible, a solution could be collapsing all streams of same name into one and only picking currently playing one. Additionally allowing scrolling after streams have taken up too much space would also be a good idea to avoid quick settings being too tall.

Hi qwreey75

Love your extension!!! I hate superfluous fluff and prefer a minimalist desktop and your extension really helps with my OCD. I am wondering if it is possible to add a compact view. I tried the Compact Quick Settings extension, but the two seem incompatible when used together. The mentioned extension overrides the settings for your extension, which is not desired as I prefer yours.

Thanks for your great work and making Gnome better!

Regards
Dorian

Killing gnome-shell only works on Xorg. If gnome-shell crashes on Wayland , it will take down everything and the user will end up back at the login screen. That means they may end up losing unsaved work.

Unfortunately, there isnt a good way to initiliaze/enable an extension with a script on Wayland. Users need to log out and back in again.

Close if not applicable but I think this is missing a very essential feature of the notification panel.

I don't see any flag in the build files to make it an option, is this feature just missing or is my extension not working?

Thank you for the amazing extension. It fits really well. Just a little issue. If we have many events in the calendar, it really looks tall and skinny. Can we have an option to move the events to left side where the notifications were previously?

When I wrote this extension the first time, I didn't consider this extension getting bigger.

As a result, the code of this extension looks very weird.
I think Code refactoring and improve quality of code are needed

It would be nice to be able to change the order of quick toggles in the menu.

Currently in Gnome 43, the do not disturb icon is seen next to the date and time as seen below:

I think that if notifications are combined in to the quick settings menu, then the do not disturb icon should also be moved to this area (seen below)

Maybe next to the wifi icon on the far left?

Hi, first of all, thanks in advance for the development of this amazing extension :-)

going straight to the point, this is not a real issue but maybe a feature request or something similar:

So, to fit my needs, I made a custom theme of Adwaita gnome shell theme mainly I changed colors and widget roundness

I noticed that your extension use a stylesheet.css file that force e.g roundness e.g of media control or notification widgets, presumably like the original adwaita gnome shell theme .

Can this be avoided in some way? I mean can the media control or notification widget adopt the same style of my custom theme?

Attached screenshot maybe describe better my request:

Andrea

Hi there,

Per the most recent release, on Ubuntu 22.10 with GNOME 43.0, the rightmost tab, presumably "Volume Mixer" crashes, here's a screenshot:
