micheleg / dash-to-dock

A dock for the Gnome Shell. This extension moves the dash out of the overview transforming it in a dock for an easier launching of applications and a faster switching between windows and desktops.

border/margin for desktop icons

lazyfrosch opened this issue · comments

Hello Michel,
do you think there is a way to add some border or margin to the desktop area to avoid having the desktop icons behind the dock?

Regards
Markus

I'm afraid it's not possible at least from within a Gnome Shell extension.
Ubuntu developers wrote a Nautilus patch for a similar issue with the Unity launcher [1,2]
but then dropped it [3].
