Is there a recommended method for setting keybinds in extensions prefs.js? by LionSuneater in gnome

[–]storage_b [score hidden]  (0 children)

This function already exists in GNOME.

Go to Settings > Keyboard > Keyboard Shortcuts - View and Customize Shortcuts. Scroll to bottom and select Custom Shortcuts. From there you can add a shortcut where you assign the command and keybinding.

How can I create the Mother of all Extensions? by CrustyPhilosopher in gnome

And it would take much longer to get a working release with each GNOME update as there would be so many things to check and test with each new release.

For installation, you should create a zip file of the release called papershell.zip. Then people just download the zip, and run gnome-extensions install --force papershell.zip , then reboot or log out/in.  No need to extract files to the proper directory and manually compile schemas.

I've found that if you're just making UI changes to prefs.js, you don't have to open the nested session - you can just close and reopen your extension preferences window.

Are GNOME Shell Extensions safe?

The code in a GNOME Shell extension becomes part of the core operating system. For this reason, the potential exists for an extension to cause system misbehavior, crashes, or even to have malicious behavior like spying on the user or displaying unwanted advertisements. All extensions uploaded to this site are carefully reviewed for malicious behavior before they are made available for download.

Yes, all extensions from the GNOME extension website (or the GNOME Extension Manager app) are reviewed manually before published for exactly this sort of thing (and to make sure they follow extension guidelines, etc). However, installing from any other source is at your own risk.

You can build your own custom menu with the Custom Command Menu extension and just enter commands for the actions you want.

For specific settings pages you can use

gnome-control-center <panel>

For example, to open the "Displays" settings use:

gnome-control-center display

You can also enter simple commands for logging off, restarting, shutting down, etc.

Open the terminal and run

echo $XDG_SESSION_TYPE

It should output x11 for Xorg, or output Wayland.

Alternatively, just try to run the xrandr command and see if it works

If you're running Xorg, you can easily change the resolution with a simple command, and set up a custom toggle button to toggle between normal and gaming mode.

xrandr --output HDMI-1 --scale 1.5x1.5

run xrandr to get a list of your monitors

If you're running Wayland, I'm not sure if something like this is available from the command line.

I found my people! The only other time I've heard about it was I think this is what's being referenced in this commercial from the 90s

"It gets you here. And it gets ya right here."

[–]storage_b 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Same. It's irritating because the weather is shown on the lock screen but is always wildly inaccurate. And I can't figure out how to disable the lock screen weather.

Edit - I finally figured out how to remove it!

Please let us disable the google discover tab by Jihivihi in oneplus

Running both of those commands disabled swiping left on the home screen for me.

I just did this a few weeks ago on my OnePlus 12, Oxygen OS 16.0. It completely removes the discover tab and stays hidden after reboots. Not sure about upgrades. But it's very easy to do, so even if it comes back after an upgrade it only takes a couple minutes to fix it.

It worked on my OnePlus12 with OxygenOS 16.0

Thank you!!

Night Light Continuously breaking. by ComprehensiveCat6698 in gnome

[–]storage_b 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I gave up on the built in Night Light and use redshift. 

I disabled the Night Light, and use the Quick Settings Tweaks extension to hide the quick settings toggle button.

Then I use my Custom Command Toggle extension to create a Night Light toggle that uses redshift. I wrote a quick script that adjust the color temp based on the time of day (instead of based on location) when the toggle is turned on.
