Existe um menu "Lugares" para o Ubuntu Unity?

Gostaria de saber se é possível colocar uma guia "Lugares" no menu superior do Ubuntu, como CentOS, Debian, etc.

obrigado

Tentei vários já existentes, mas não consegui encontrar um indicador de locais de trabalho . Os que encontrei estavam desatualizados, os ppa não eram mais mantidos.

Menu Lugares modulares

Então, abaixo de um recém-escrito: indicador Places & Files para Ubuntu .

A versão ppa é modular ; você pode escolher o que mostrar no menu:

[ ]

Na versão completa:

... ou o menor, mostrando apenas os usados ​​recentemente:

Instalando a partir do ppa

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:vlijm/placesfiles
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install placesfiles

Uma versão simplificada para mostrar um menu de locais, favoritos e arquivos usados ​​recentemente

Indicator()
GObject.threads_init()
signal.signal(signal.SIGINT, signal.SIG_DFL)
Gtk.main()

Como usar (se não estiver instalado a partir do ppa)

1. Copie o script em um arquivo vazio, salve-o como places_indicator.py

2. Salve o ícone (clique com o botão direito do mouse em> salvar como) exatamente chamado:

   dir_icon.png
   

   

   ..em um e no mesmo diretório que o script.

3. Teste - execute o script pelo comando:

   python3 /path/to/places_indicator.py
   

4. Se tudo funcionar bem, adicione-o a Aplicativos de inicialização: Dash> Aplicativos de inicialização> Adicionar. Adicione o comando:

   /bin/bash -c "sleep 10 && python3 /path/to/places_indicator.py
   

Sobre o indicador

O indicador mostra:

1. O diretório inicial
2. Todos os diretórios (marcadores locais e smb) em
   • ~/.config/gtk-3.0/bookmarks
   • ~/.config/user-dirs.dirs
3. Rede
4. Conecte-se à rede
5. Computador
6. Arquivos usados ​​recentemente (lats 10, como é, podem ser facilmente alterados)

A alteração / adição / remoção de marcadores é atualizada dinamicamente

Atualização 24 / fev / 2017 : o indicador agora tem opção para fixar links da web

Introdução

NOTA: A versão anterior desta resposta pode ser encontrada no histórico de edições, embora não seja mais relevante.

O indicador apresentado abaixo foi elaborado para uma pergunta diferente, mas desde que a oportunidade se apresentou, decidi divulgá-lo aqui. O Indicador de Arquivos é um indicador simples para acessar arquivos e pastas do usuário. Permite verificar arquivos usados ​​recentemente, marcar arquivos e diretórios. Em particular, o menu Lugares é especificamente relevante para esta pergunta.

Como você pode ver na captura de tela, o indicador também suporta localidades diferentes do inglês; portanto, se o seu sistema usar algo diferente do inglês, ele funcionará.

Atualização : o indicador agora também suporta o lançamento de arquivos .desktop que foram fixados. Por exemplo, se você tiver fixado o firefox.desktop, ele iniciará o firefox. Assim, o indicador pode ser usado como iniciador rápido para programas. O recurso está a caminho do PPA no momento da redação (19 de novembro, 19:53 pm GMT, deve levar cerca de 24 horas para ser processado), mas já está no github e aqui, no código-fonte atualizado.

Obtendo o indicador

O indicador está disponível no meu PPA pessoal e no GitHub . Use as seguintes etapas para obtê-lo:

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:1047481448-2/sergkolo
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install files-indicator

Configurações

O indicador é configurado através de dois arquivos json armazenados no diretório inicial do usuário.

~/.files_indicator.json controla a interface do usuário, o comprimento das entradas do menu e os números máximos no menu Arquivos Recentes.

{
    "name_length": 30,
    "max_items": 10
}

O ~/.pinned_files.jsoncontrola as listas de arquivos e pastas fixados. Cada item é uma lista / matriz.

{
    "dirs": [
        "/home/xieerqi/\u56fe\u7247/Wallpapers"
    ],
    "files": [
        "/home/xieerqi/work_in_progress/videonauth_code.py",
        "/home/xieerqi/work_in_progress/spin_button.py"
    ]
}

Ok pessoal, o que eu fiz foi apenas instalar o Ubuntu-Gnome e habilitar a extensão 'Places' na ferramenta Tweak. Tenho que dizer que o Ubuntu Gnome parece muito melhor do que o Unity
