Argos menus won't open on Ubuntu 20.04 - Is it a known issue?

[iyuvalk]

I'm using this script (from the README):

#!/usr/bin/env bash

echo "top"
echo "---"

if [ "$ARGOS_MENU_OPEN" == "true" ]; then
  # http://stackoverflow.com/a/14853319
  TOP_OUTPUT=$(top -b -n 1 | head -n 20 | awk 1 ORS="\\\\n")
  echo "$TOP_OUTPUT | font=monospace bash=top"
else
  echo "Loading..."
fi

When I click the icon on the bar nothing happens. Is this normal?

have you tried this version that seems to work with gnome 3.38?

@plegrand1, Thanks for the quick response!! I tried it now (removed argos, cloned it, copied it to ~/.local/share/gnome-shell/extensions/, restarted Gnome by Alt+F2 and clicked 'r' and enabled it again) and it didn't work too. ):

I ran journalctl /usr/bin/gnome-shell -f and this is what I found:

I also looked at the "About" window and found out that my Gnome version is 3.36.3.

Do you have any other idea?

Oh... That was silly.... I cloned it from the master and not from the branch and now it works perfectly (-:

Sorry for the trouble... <-:

Tnx, {-:

Just one last thing... This version works well and the menus do open but for some reason I cannot set the text color... the background color works correctly though.

Is that normal?
