GNOME 43 Plans to Introduce Redesigned Quick Settings
|
||
======
|
||
The upcoming GNOME 43 release changes the system tray menu completely. Here’s how it looks.
|
||
|

|
||
|
||
Among all the attractive changes coming to GNOME 43, the redesigned quick settings menu is the most visible revamp. The quick settings or system tray menu remained the same for a long time. There were minor tweaks, such as earlier consolidation of menu items. But we never got to experience a complete overhaul before.

||
### GNOME 43 Quick Settings
|
||
|
||
So, GNOME 43 quick settings look, menu items are changing to look below.
|
||
|
||

|
||
|
||
Firstly, the individual menu items are now more visible with “pill-shaped” buttons. These buttons perform dual functions when applied. You click on them to enable/disable the function (i.e. quick toggles). Also, if you click on the small arrow, you get additional options.
|
||
|
||
Secondly, the ‘pill-buttons’ appearance indicates whether the option is enabled or disabled by changing its colour.
|
||
|
||
The submenu, which opens up after you bring up more settings for a function, can draw itself on top of the earlier menu items. This eliminates another additional click.
|
||
|
||
Another interesting change which I feel is super helpful is the active indicator of privacy-related functions. For example, if an app currently uses your mic or you are having a screen-sharing session with your colleagues/friends, the quick settings give you additional colour identification to appraise you.
|
||
|
||
In addition, the batter indicator is also coming up as more descriptive inside the quick settings menu with an icon and the available power capacity.
|
||
|
||
### When the quick settings would be available?
|
||
|
||
The merge request is currently open ([MR 2392][3]) as of publishing this page.
|
||
|
||
What does that mean?
|
||
|
||
It means that GNOME devs and contributors will test and review the changes in design and functionality. So, I guess in a few weeks, it might get merged.
|
||
|
||
GNOME 43 release candidate and hard code freeze due a month from now, i.e. September 3rd, 2022. If all goes well, it should be available for you to test via GNOME nightly OS.
|
||
|
||
Here are the mock-up images and sample videos (credit to the GNOME team) to treat your eyes which I organized in a single place.
|
||
|
||
A caution note is that all these are still subject to change in the final release.

### Does it resemble anything?
|
||
|
||
Do you remember when I [reviewed dahliaOS earlier][10] based on Google’s Fuchsia operating system? When I first saw these mock-ups, I remember they looked somewhat similar to dahliaOS’s tray menu. See below. Although it’s at the bottom and looks a little wider – you can see the resemblance.
|
||
|
||
![System Tray of dahliaOS][11]
|
||
|
||
Anywho.
|
||
|
||
### Thoughts?
|
||
|
||
If you ask me, I guess it’s refreshing and probably a long due. An overall nice and intuitive design requires no additional learning from the new users. Finally, GNOME 43 is shaping to be a powerful release after all.
|
||
|
||
**Now you**: What do you think about this design change that impacts all the users? Let’s discuss in the comment box.
