Thank you for your reply. I’ll give Weather Show a try. Regards Nick

:+1: Curious if it works for you / if you like it.

Hi Vlijm, Where do I find Weather Show applet? Thanks Nick

Strike that , Vlijm. Found the applet. Very cool. :sunglasses: I now have a separate issue of double icons in my applet tray - namely two caffeine icons, and two Megasync. Is there any way to rectify this? Many thanks, Nick

Sorted my applets as well! :grinning:

Why do the applets resort themselves upon login? I have to go into settings and reorganize upon every boot. Has this been addressed yet, or can it be included in the “wishlist?”

It’s a known upstream issue: https://github.com/solus-project/budgie-desktop/issues/1058 . Although the issue is closed, it still happens sometimes. As a bandage, run nohup budgie-panel --reset --replace& and reorder the applets as you like.

Thanks. I will give the bandage a shot.

Yes it still happens sometimes - at least on Ubuntu-Budgie 18.04 - and the bandage works well. I just wonder - since after bandage the applets ordering issue has not come back - does it mean there’s something missing right after installation ?

No. It is a known issue upstream. Several reports. Generally closed with this workaround as the resolution.
