I think this should be closed. I'm going to do that. I actually think that Will meant to when he wrote comment #6.
The idea is the the title of a maximised window is below the clock, or (for example) centred when you have two windows side by side. That means it has to be not in the centre of the whole screen when the dock is not auto-hidden, and vice-versa. The team discussed this extensively at the time (when we introduced the dock I think), and most recently in Paris sprint and we re-confirmed that this is the behaviour that we thought was desirable. I don't think there's much sense in having this topic permanently open as an energy and time sink. If there *is* a bug here, perhaps it is that we should not produce default wallpapers which look visually centered. ** Changed in: gnome-shell (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => Won't Fix -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-shell in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1843899 Title: gnome-shell calendar widget is not centered on the screen Status in Ubuntu UX: New Status in gnome-shell package in Ubuntu: Won't Fix Bug description: With the new eoan wallpaper it is obvious that calendar widget, is not in fact, centered on the screen. Nor is like left/right aligned to the centre either. It feels as if it is centered, with an offset / margin on the left. between "right edge of the app menu" and "left edge of the top right indicators", instead of centered to the screen width.The blue line on the screenshot is the centre fold of the screen, you can see that the wallpaper is correctly centered with the animal circle in the centre.
