### Feature summary
I use frequently few devices which I need to connect and disconnect manually. Built-in way is quite unpleasant to use, you need to:
1. click aggregate menu
1. click BT submenu
1. click BT settings
1. click device in question
1. click Connected toggle
which is even worse than for wifi. Gnome should make this easier for known devices
### How would you like it to work
Easiest way to do this is IMO to show known devices right in BT submenu with an option to connect/disconnect right from there similary as you can toggle VPNs in VPN submenu

### New Feature : Day Light Temperature
I would like to be able to customize the temperature of my screen during the day, without interfering with the night mode.
The problem is that this modification makes "Night mode" lose its meaning.If the functionality to change the daylight is added, the "Night Mode" functionality would become rather the "Blue Light" functionality.
### How I suppose like it to work
As an example of a feature to add:
In Gnome settings > Screen > Night mode
New button: Enable custom daylight temperature.
If enabled, make a second slider appear on the "color temperature" parameter line. The position of the slider "daylight" is necessarily lower than the one that defines "night light".
### Relevant links
[Redshift](http://jonls.dk/redshift/), [F.lux](https://justgetflux.com/) allow this functionality and I think it is important to offer this functionality. For the sake of the users.

It would be great if this option would survive applications starts.
This is also common in other Desktop environments [like Mac OS/X](https://support.apple.com/guide/mac-help/work-in-multiple-spaces-mh14112/mac) (right click on an app icon `Options` > `Assign To` gives the options `All Desktops`, `This Desktop` or `None` — where `None` is the default).
### How would you like it to work
The UI stay like it is now. But the option should be persisted per application.
In OS/X activating this option for the Finder leads to the situation on having all Finder windows on all desktops.
So this would lead to consistent behaviour.
I propose a similar approach for GNOME.
Furthermore I added a comment to [a corresponding `os-mockups` issue](https://gitlab.gnome.org/Teams/Design/os-mockups/-/issues/83#note_1276251).

Several flatpaks include multiple applications under a shared prefix. For example, [LibreOffice](https://flathub.org/apps/details/org.libreoffice.LibreOffice) includes `org.libreoffice.LibreOffice.writer`, `org.libreoffice.LibreOffice.draw`, and several others.
In #219, GNOME Shell's window tracker was tweaked so that, with X11, these different applications are now correctly appearing as their own entries in GNOME Shell's application switcher. (In addition, their running state appears separately in the launcher).
However, we don't have a Wayland equivalent to this: if an application is sandboxed, [`get_app_for_window`](https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/-/blob/0ad242a81ee921f23036ed8741ff0b8459529e04/src/shell-window-tracker.c#L371-468) skips any other checks and goes with the sandbox app ID.
You can compare these behaviours by running the following commands with the LibreOffice flatpak installed:
flatpak run --socket=x11 --nosocket=wayland org.libreoffice.LibreOffice --writer
> You will see "LibreOffice Writer" in the application switcher.
flatpak run --socket=wayland --nosocket=x11 org.libreoffice.LibreOffice --writer
> You will see "LibreOffice" in the application switcher.
### How would you like it to work
The way GNOME Shell groups windows into applications - including windows belonging to sandboxed apps - should be the same using Wayland as it is using X11.
### Relevant links, screenshots, screencasts etc.
I'm unfamiliar with what mechanisms we have with Wayland that are equivalent to WM_CLASS, but I suspect as a start it would make sense if GNOME Shell allows a sandboxed application to provide a GApplication ID as long as that ID is prefixed by its sandboxed app ID. This is equivalent to the prefix check in [`get_app_from_window_wmclass`](https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/-/blob/0ad242a81ee921f23036ed8741ff0b8459529e04/src/shell-window-tracker.c#L132-215)…

From my understanding the ...### Description
This suggestion deals with the behavior of the Tab, Shift+Tab, and Arrow keys during the Activities overview. I think their current behavior is not optimal and I propose an alternate behavior.
From my understanding the current behavior is this:
* Pressing Tab during the Activities Overview will select the current application. Continually pressing Tab will do nothing.
* Pressing Shift+Tab during the Activities Overview will select the last used application. Continually pressing Shift+Tab will do nothing.
* Pressing the arrow keys will directionally navigate through the windows on the current workspace.
I think the Tab behavior is unintuitive, especially when thinking about how the Tab button is used during Alt+Tab'ing. Changing the Tab behaviour will suggest a different way to use the arrow keys. Currently, I find the default keyboard shortcut to switch workspaces prohibitively difficult to press on my 13" laptop, requiring me to awkwardly hold down the Fn key to access PgUp and PgDn. (On a full size-keyboard, I also think that reaching for PgUp and PgDn is a stretch) I believe that when the user is in the Activities Overview, they should have a new set of more accessible keyboard shortcuts for switching the workspace.
### Suggested Usage
Therefore I suggest this new behaviour for Tab, Shift+Tab, and Arrow Keys during Activities Overview,
Tab and Shift+Tab should cycle through the windows in the currently active workspace. By what logic I am currently not sure. Last used? Spatial? (When considering spatial, the developer will have to consider the interactions between the default arrangement, and the Native Window Placement extension. I think going clockwise and counterclockwise with tab/shift+tab is a good way to go.)
The left and right arrows will switch to the workspace on the left or right.
The up and arrow keys I am not quite sure yet. Perhaps, they could move the user up and down these 3 things: The search bar, the row of workspaces, and the application docker on the bottom. Once a user is on the application docker, they could use the left/right keys to select an application, then activate with enter.
### Vision
I imagine myself switching applications this way:
Hit super, maybe press left or right, mash tab (or shift+tab) a bunch of times, press enter( or super).https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/-/issues/3968Visual switches for debug flags in looking glass / lg2022-01-11T21:44:25ZRobert Maderrobert.mader@posteo.deVisual switches for debug flags in looking glass / lgOpening a tracking about a feature we've been asked for a bunch of times: making shell/mutter debug flags more easily discoverable in `lg`.

Context:
We have a bunch of debug options that are not only helpful for shell development but app/toolkit/extension developers and users as well.
Examples include damage and opaque region indicators that help app developers make their app more efficient/perform better.
Example optimized app:
![opaque_region_overlay_small](/uploads/eb00817027161372eaae6e5a997eb437/opaque_region_overlay_small.png)
Examle semi-optimized app:
![opaque_region_overlay_non_optimized_small](/uploads/b69d354902b9300daea08402641cf1c5/opaque_region_overlay_non_optimized_small.png)
Currently these debug options are not easily discoverable - the opaque region overlay above can be enabled using `Meta.add_debug_paint_flag(Meta.DebugPaintFlag.OPAQUE_REGION)` and so far is not well documented. Other platforms provide app devs with more easily discoverable tools. E.g. MacOS:
![transparent-window](/uploads/7f9e306be7368d35b82c2dc081ecfb48/transparent-window.png)
One easy way to archive this would be to have a section in Looking Glass that would show a list of available options, easily toggle-able, potentially with some help text. Alternatively it could be a drop-down similar to the accessibly options menu or an extension.

In GNOME 3.38, the app grid was reworked so that users can now freely place applications wherever they want. While this opens up space for new customizations, it also adds more work because the user has to do the arrangement of the grid themselves. Users also need to remember the place they put an icon, something that can be difficult when, for example, an app has been removed and reinstalled from a different packaging system (for example RPM to Flatpak) and the icon does not go back to its former place. Of course, sorting apps from A to Z of course changes the layout every time a new application is installed, but does so in a predictable manner.
Currently, the layout can be 'reset' to A-Z using _gsettings_, but this does not restore the order of applications inside folders.
This feature request proposes the reversal of this behaviour to the previous behaviour where apps are sorted from A to Z. For me personally, I think arranging the apps myself takes a lot of effort and I'd rather have my computer handle this for me, and some other people have noted the same in [this bug report.](https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/-/issues/3180)
### How would you like it to work
<!--
If you can think of a way GNOME Shell might be able to do this,

I would like to see a button, possibly next to the search bar, in the application grid that allows the user to switch from a custom layout, an A-Z layout and the Frequent layout that was removed in 3.38 as well. This allows users that like more customization to create their own layout, but this allows users that like their DE to get out of their way to keep it that way as well.

Often I am searching for files using the Gnome Activities tool (by pressing super key).
In many cases I don't want to open the file, but for example copy it somewhere, send it per mail somewhere etc.
I can only click on the search result, which opens the file. There is no right click menu, and no modifier key (ctrl + click, alt+click) that allows me to open the folder in which the file resides.
Therefore I have to manually browse in Nautilus to the directory to be able to copy or send the file
### Desired behavior
Have a modifier key (ctrl or alt) which when pressed before clicking the result opens the folder of the file instead of the file itself. The Mac Spotlight feature does the same if you hold down the "command" key.
### Benefits of the solution
* Shorter workflows
* Easier for users coming from Mac to adapt Gnome.
### Possible drawbacks
* Small amount of added complexity-

So a proper discussion and some design decisions are necessary to enable it again and to make sure we never accidentally break installations. Here are some open questions:
- When to auto-enable offline updates on devices using a battery
- In case the battery charge-level is used for that decision, how should larger updates or whole System upgrades be handled
- Is it consistent/overlapping with heuristics used in packagekit or gnome-software
- How does packagekit/rpm/dpkg/whatever handle failures like the battery running out, will it recover without manual intervention?

The settings dialog shows screenspace relative to pixels, making the right monitor 4 times as big. In reality its 24' vs 27'.
This makes moving windows across screens challenging, as only the upper part of the right monitor's edge can be used.

Such a normal task, however, shouldn't require third party applications. It is unreasonable to think that a normal user would want to have Spotify on his speakers and a Discord call in his earbuds? As a matter of fact, everyone else has this feature built-in (e.g. Windows, OSX, Plasma, don't know about MATE, XFCE and LXQt). But why should gnome require an external application/extension?
My suggestion is to add a dropdown in the sound settings or expand the functionality provided by the user-menu volume indicator: maybe instead of muting on click, something kind of stupid in my opinion, it would expand to a sub menu, [like this extension](https://extensions.gnome.org/extension/906/sound-output-device-chooser/).
