Thanks for advising of an updated package. I've enabled proposed and updated g-c-c to version 1:3.36.2-0ubuntu1 as requested.
Logging into an Ubuntu session I can now freely toggle the setting "Show on" between "1. Built in display" and "2. Primary display". The dock no longer displays incorrectly on both monitors or exhibits a crash as I originally reported. However, I'm unsure whether to tag the bug report "verification-done" or "verification-failed" as when the dock is set to appear on the primary display it is shown on the built in display and v.v. This hasn't changed from my original report. However, logging into a GNOME session rather than an Ubuntu session, using the Dash to Dock extension and the dock's own settings panel I see that "Show dock on" does correctly indicate which monitor is displaying the dock, i.e. "Primary monitor" or "Secondary monitor 1". >From that I'm of the opinion that the issue that I originally reported has not been fully fixed. I await guidance on the scope of the intended fix before tagging "done" or "failed". -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-shell-extension-ubuntu-dock in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1866088 Title: Problems with the Dock setting of "Show on" in the Appearance tab Status in gnome-control-center package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in gnome-shell-extension-ubuntu-dock package in Ubuntu: Won't Fix Status in gnome-control-center source package in Focal: Fix Committed Status in gnome-control-center source package in Groovy: Fix Released Bug description: I use a laptop with external monitor in a dual display set-up. The "Screen Display" tab of Settings application correctly shows: Display 1 as the built-in display Display 2 as the external monitor If I go to the new "Appearance" tab I see that the Dock is set to display on the Built-in display but it is actually being displayed on the external monitor. If I change this setting to display on the external monitor it displays on the laptop's built-in display. Once set to "All displays" the setting can not be unset and the dock insists on being displayed on both the laptop's built-in display and the external monitor. I used the Dconf editor to set org.gnome.shell.extensions.dash-to-dock.multi-monitor to off to correct the problem although the settings application again shows that the dock is being displayed on the built-in display when in fact it is being shown on the external monitor.
