TopIcons: https://extensions.gnome.org/extension/495/topicons/

Maybe also drop them (G3 devs) a line and point them at this application as one that needs better system integration.

It just does not work in 3.26

gnome-shell[9055]: JS ERROR: TypeError: notificationDaemon._trayManager is undefined moveToTop@/home/jak/.local/share/gnomeshell/extensions/topIcons@adel.gadllah@gmail.com/extension.js:121:5

Neither does TopIcons Plus.

You use Debian right? Have you tried the gnome-shell-extension-top-icons-plus uploaded yesterday to unstable?

Yes, it doesnt work in 3.26 yet because one of the things Topicons does is remove the existing status tray and since it was removed in 3.26 it breaks. This is true for Topicons Plus. We have provided a patch to Topicons and have alerted the maintainer who will integrate it.

Tried TopIcons but the only thing I managed to do was removing the status icons completely:(
now I can not get it back at all and I really used the dropbox icon :(

not sure what to do now.

At least after a restart of the computer the workspace grid now started to actually work. Well sort of work It still only managed one of the displays the other one is static.

Maybe disabling all the extensions and then putting them back one by one. If you go to GNOME Tweaks, you can disable them.

That was the first thing I did. Think Ubuntu updated gnome shell to the new version so now after reboot I run the version where the functionality is already removed .

I sent a comment on the Allan Day blogpost to alert about the Cryptkeeper applet.
3 days after, this comment is still not published.
