I think this should be closed. I'm going to do that. I actually think that Will meant to when he wrote comment #6.
The idea is the the title of a maximised window is below the clock, or (for example) centred when you have two windows side by side. That means it has to be not in the centre of the whole screen when the dock is not auto-hidden, and vice-versa. The team discussed this extensively at the time (when we introduced the dock I think), and most recently in Paris sprint and we re-confirmed that this is the behaviour that we thought was desirable. I don't think there's much sense in having this topic permanently open as an energy and time sink. If there *is* a bug here, perhaps it is that we should not produce default wallpapers which look visually centered. ** Changed in: gnome-shell (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => Won't Fix -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-shell in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1843899 Title: gnome-shell calendar widget is not centered on the screen To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-ux/+bug/1843899/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
