Reopened because a third person has requested this today. Didier's reason for saying "Won't Fix" makes some sense when the dock is on the left. But when the dock is on the bottom, the request makes more sense.
It's also worth pointing out this is a request for a /setting/ and not a request to change the default button location. ** Summary changed: - Return the ability (setting) to move the Show Applications icon to the top (or left) of the dock + Return the ability (setting) to move the Show Applications icon to the left (or top) of the dock ** Changed in: gnome-shell-extension-ubuntu-dock (Ubuntu) Status: Won't Fix => Confirmed ** Description changed: - Suggestion: Move the Show Applications icon to the top of the dock - - It's almost hidden at the bottom on the screen right now. And not very - well discoverable for Unity users who are used to the BFB at the top. + Add an option to move the Show Applications icon to the top (or left) of + the dock.
