26.04 Testing Resources App Observations

I’m testing the “Resources” app (replacing the current system resource monitor) installed from Resolute repo.

Just saw a couple of things that can be improved:

  • the “Applications” and “Process” columns can be sorted and resized, but that settings are not stored so will be lost the next time app is open (layout is reset to default).
  • if you start “Resources” with root permissions it works but no setting is stored so every setting change is lost at next open. The dconf keys stored for root at “net.nokyan.Resources” cannot be changed, or better said, it can be changed but it resets to original value a few moments later. It works with regular user but not with root.

Moved to Pre-Release Discussion as this is neither a support request nor entirely suitable for a Roadmap topic.

My suggestion would be to file a bug report if this is a bug or a pull request if you think it is a feature that needs to be added/modified.

Thanks

I see another problem on ‘Resources’ and so opened a bug:
