This bug was initially created as a copy of Bug #1613835 I am copying this bug because: The issue is affecting multiple releases of RHEL. Originally the issue was reported for RHEL7. But, I am able to reproduce the issue with RHEL8 and Fedora as well. 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-tweaks-3.28.1-6.el8.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. Additional info:
Thanks for a bug report. gnome-tweaks just calls gnome-shell-extension-prefs for that giver extension, thus the preferences are handled by the respective extensions, as written in bug #1613835 comment #5. I'm moving this to gnome-shell-extensions. See the original bug for the patch and a reference to an upstream fix.
By the way, it's only a visual thing, the current setting doesn't change until the user clicks on any of the values.
On gnome-shell-extensions-3.32.1-11.el8, the setting stays no matter how many times you open the settings GUI.
