The upcoming Windows 11 has leaked online a few days ago. Here’s how to implement the new look and feel in Ubuntu 20.04, and\/or Ubuntu 21.04.<\/p>\n
Gnome has a large collection of extensions to get additional and optional functionality. You can use dash to panel<\/b><\/i> to combine the top-bar and the left dock into single. And Arc Menu<\/b><\/i> extension is available to replace the default system app launcher.<\/p>\n
So your Ubuntu Desktop can be customized to look like the picture shows:<\/p>\n
For Ubuntu 21.04<\/b>, simply press Ctrl+Alt+T<\/i> on keyboard to open terminal and run command to install the extension:<\/p>\n For Ubuntu 20.04<\/b>, though the previous command works I recommend to do following steps instead to get the newer version:<\/p>\n a. First run command to install required tools for installing & managing Gnome extensions:<\/p>\n b. Next go to Dash-to-Panel web page and turn on the slider icon to install it:<\/p>\n If you don’t see the toggle icon, install browser extension via “Click here to install browser extension<\/i>” link and refresh the web page.<\/i><\/p>\n Once installed the extensions, restart Gnome Shell by pressing Alt+F2<\/i><\/b>, type r<\/b> in popup ‘Run a Command’ box, and hit Enter.<\/p>\n Or just log-out and back in if you’re running on Wayland session.<\/p>\n Next enable the extension via either Gnome Extension app<\/i> or Gnome Tweaks<\/i> tool.<\/p>\n Finally right-click on blank area<\/i> of the new panel, and go to ‘Dash to Panel Settings’. There do:<\/p>\n Though the Arc Menu is available to install via apt command, I recommend to install it from your web browser. That’s because the one in apt repository is the un-maintained versions though it still works in current releases.<\/p>\n 1.) First run command to install the required tools, if you didn’t do it in previous step:<\/p>\n Next go to Arc Menu web page and turn on the slider icon to install it:<\/p>\n If you don’t see the toggle icon, install browser extension via “Click here to install browser extension<\/i>” link and refresh the web page.<\/i><\/p>\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/ubuntuhandbook.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/archmenu-win11.jpg\")
