Public bug reported: Hot Corners are disabled by default as of today's Ubuntu 17.10 build.
To enable them, run this from a terminal: gsettings set org.gnome.shell enable-hot-corners true There is a top hot corner to open the Activities Overview. I think it makes sense to balance that by adding a bottom hot corner to open Show Applications. Other Info =========== You could even add a 3rd hot corner in the top right to open the system status menu but that may actually be really annoying with the window management buttons (minimize, maximize, close) there. The gnome-shell patch is named "enable-hot-corners" implying that GNOME itself plans to make use of other corners? or is that just for multi- monitor? It might be worth asking GNOME what their current future intentions are for that. ** Affects: gnome-shell-extension-ubuntu-dock (Ubuntu) Importance: Wishlist Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1712042 Title: Feature Request: Bottom Hot Corner to open Show Applications To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-shell-extension-ubuntu-dock/+bug/1712042/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
