[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1774505] Re: OSD for volume/brightness should only appear on main display
** Changed in: gnome-shell (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete => New ** Description changed: + https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/issues/327 + + --- + When watching a movie on an external display it's often useful to adjust the volume. Currently gnome-shell will display the OSD on both displays creating an overlay over the video. Unity would only display on the screen of the app used at the moment. Ideally it would just always show up on the main display so that you can keep focus on the video app for other keybindings to still work. I tried searching for an extension to do this but couldn't find one.

Submitted here: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/issues/327 I mentioned it here because this is a regression for me compared to Unity on 16.04. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-shell in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1774505 Title: OSD for volume/brightness should only appear on main display Status in gnome-shell package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: When watching a movie on an external display it's often useful to adjust the volume.

I feel gnome-shell's behaviour makes more sense. Still, please report the suggestion to the Gnome developers here: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/issues and then let us know the URL of the issue report. ** Changed in: gnome-shell (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => Wishlist ** Changed in: gnome-shell (Ubuntu) Status: New => Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-shell in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1774505 Title: OSD for volume/brightness should only appear on main display Status in gnome-shell package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: When watching a movie on an external display it's often useful to adjust the volume.
