Re: [Ayatana] Application Indicators improvement suggestion - optional text with icon



Yes, I too was hoping for this, as many people were complaining about our weather indicator not having the temperature accompanying the weather icon. This was a feature that was included in the gnome clock applet, so therefore it might be missed when the conversion to the weather indicator is made from the applet.

Hello!

Idea: Add possibility to optionally accompany icon with some text (just like Indicator Applet Session or any other menu widget do).

Purpose: Some applications are aimed to show some vital information beside boolean Attention/Normal indicator, but this info is simple (just number or short text) and creating dedicated applet (like system monitor or desktop switcher) just not worth it. Examples: CPU frequency, HW info (lmsensors), weather indicator etc.

Is there any chance of accepting such a patch for AI API?
