GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 694235
Extensions do not obey the shell theme.
Last modified: 2021-07-05 14:13:17 UTC
for example: - extensions which add panels, those panels will not look the same as the other panels eg frippery bottom panel. - extensions which add items to the system panels, those items will not fit correctly on the panels if the panels are resized by the theme eg frippery panel favourites, topicons. I don't know if this is a problem with developer education or if it is simply impossible to access the current theme information through the extension API, but either way it needs fixing if extensions really are supposed to be the one and only way to customize gnome shell.

Sorry for the noise, I "found" a bug in the migration script: https://gitlab.gnome.org/External/bugzilla-to-gitlab-migrator/issues/2
GNOME is going to shut down bugzilla.gnome.org in favor of gitlab.gnome.org. As part of that, we are mass-closing older open tickets in bugzilla.gnome.org which have not seen updates for a longer time (resources are unfortunately quite limited so not every ticket can get handled). If you can still reproduce the situation described in this ticket in a recent and supported software version, then please follow https://wiki.gnome.org/GettingInTouch/BugReportingGuidelines and create a new ticket at https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/-/issues/ Thank you for your understanding and your help.
