Public bug reported: Upstream reverted showing the desktop launcher of nm-connection-editor because it's confusing for the average user, its icon is outdated and does not follow the current GNOME icon design guidelines. https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/network-manager-applet/issues/55 https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/network-manager-applet/commit/a0c31ed5
Upstream follow-up bug: Remove runtime dependency on network-manager-applet (nm-connection-editor) https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-control-center/issues/512 So in the meantime I suggest exposing a button in the Network panel (or else where it fits) to open nm-connection-editor in order not to lose the tool's functionally. The name of the button could be Advanced Network Configuration. Note: we are already doing the same thing for Region & Language settings and Printer settings. ** Affects: gnome-control-center (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: eoan -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-control-center in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1840675 Title: Expose a button in the Network panel to open nm-connection-editor Status in gnome-control-center package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: Upstream reverted showing the desktop launcher of nm-connection-editor because it's confusing for the average user, its icon is outdated and does not follow the current GNOME icon design guidelines. https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/network-manager-applet/issues/55 https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/network-manager-applet/commit/a0c31ed5 Upstream follow-up bug: Remove runtime dependency on network-manager-applet (nm-connection-editor) https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-control-center/issues/512 So in the meantime I suggest exposing a button in the Network panel (or else where it fits) to open nm-connection-editor in order not to lose the tool's functionally.
