How do I move the "Show Applications" icon in Ubuntu Dock?
Ubuntu 17.10 introduces the GNOME Shell with the Ubuntu Dock (based on Dash to Dock GNOME Shell extension) and it allows you to put the Dock on the bottom of the desktop:
However, there is no easy way to move the Show Applications icon (shown on the right) to the left of the Dock. There is no such setting in GNOME Control Center. There is already a bug filed, but does anybody know any workaround until it gets fixed by Ubuntu Dock developers?
If you don't like to run command then open dconf-editor( by simply click show applications icon and search dconf) then go to
org > gnome > shell > extensions > dash-to-dock
and search for the show-apps-at-top and make it on
See screenshot for your reference:
I found the following workaround using the command line:
gsettings set org.gnome.shell.extensions.dash-to-dock show-apps-at-top true
To make it persistent, run these commands as root:
echo show-apps-at-top=true >> /usr/share/glib-2.0/schemas/10_ubuntu-dock.gschema.override
glib-compile-schemas /usr/share/glib-2.0/schemas/
