Is there some way to make the desktop space useful for >more than pretty wallpaper? I'm not at my usual machines so I don't have access to CentOS 7 or GNOME 3 at the moment. And even if did I tend not to bother with stuff on the desktop so I couldn't help with that anyway. However, if it's menu items in the top bar you want I do have an app for that, or rather a GNOME Shell extension. Visit https://extensions.gnome.org and search for 'Frippery Panel Favorites'. You might need to 'yum install gnome-shell-browser-plugin' first to allow extensions to be installed from the website. Frippery Panel Favorites displays icons in the top bar for applications that have been configured as favourites in the overview screen. It works in standard GNOME Shell and in classic mode. I find it much less distracting than having to switch to the overview to access frequently-used applications. Ron
