RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Description Michal Odehnal 2018-08-08 11:47:09 UTC 
Description of problem:
While setting Window List under Extensions tab in tweak-tools, the setting will reset upon opening the window. 

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
gnome-tweak-tool-3.28.1-2.el7.noarch

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open gnome-tweak-tool.
2. Go to Extensions tab.
3. Open Window List setting (gear button).
4. Set Always group windows.
5. Close Window List window.
6. Open Window List setting (gear button) again.

Actual results:
Setting is back to Never group windows.

Expected results:
My setting gets saved/will not get reset upon opening the window.

Comment 2 Michal Odehnal 2018-08-08 12:08:12 UTC 
Upon closer look, the setting will get saved the moment I close the Window List. As I am able to see multiple instances of terminal grouping and ungrouping. But only after closing the Window List. This setting will reset once the Window List is opened again.

Also should mention the AlternateTab is working well, I would expect the same from Window List as they seem like exact copies.
Comment 3 Carlos Soriano 2018-09-04 11:21:16 UTC 
I tried with dconf, and seems the keys cannot be found somehow, so it's seems an issue with gnome-shell-extensions or so.
Comment 4 Carlos Soriano 2018-09-04 11:49:35 UTC 
I can reproduce with gnome-shell-extension-tool, so seems the issue is there. the setting is changed in dconf fine.

I doubt it - the only settings gnome-shell-extension-prefs knows about are the relevant settings in org.gnome.shell (enabled-extensions and disable-user-extensions).

The settings from individual extension settings are handled by the preference widget that is supplied by the extension, so that's more likely the source.
Comment 7 Milan Crha 2020-04-17 07:23:08 UTC 
Florian is right, the problem is in gnome-shell-extensions, thus I move this there. This [1] is a link to an upstream fix.

The upstream fix does not apply to RHEL sources, this is the version, which does.

Unable to reproduce with gnome-shell-extensions-3.28.1-13.el7.
