traytop

traytop is an extension for GNOME Shell 3.4 that puts all your tray icons to the top panel, where they belong.

Features

• No configuration needed; all tray icons are moved.
• Tray icons that are hidden by default are still hidden (e.g., Network Manager which is replaced by the native Shell icon).
• Tested in GNOME Shell 3.4.2 (Debian wheezy).

Bugs

• Doesn't work in the latest version of GNOME Shell.

Installation

1. Download the extension:

    git clone https://github.com/polof/traytop.git \
        ~/.local/share/gnome-shell/extensions/[email protected]
   

2. Restart GNOME Shell (Alt+F2 and type 'r').

3. Open gnome-tweak-tool and enable the extension.

4. All new tray icons should now appear in the top panel. If you want to move existing tray icons there, restart GNOME Shell again.
