Unlike in the version of Karmic, the nautilus-script “search in folder” in Lucid does not (!) search in the selected folder but always in /home/.
A workaround: open file “/home//.gnome2/nautilus-scripts/search in folder” (sorry I don’t know the correct english translation of the filename) and enter: gnome-search-tool –path=%M
The search does not start in the selected folder (like in Karmic), first you have to open (!) the folder an then run the script.
Sorry, this Blog acts a little bit strange.
The above mentioned path is: “/home/username/.gnome2/nautilus-scripts/search in folder”
The parameter is not –path=%M (!). The parameter needs two (!) minus characters, not only one – but this blog shows only one minus character.
i just found a good addon for nautilus called “nautilus-actions” which allows action with for different filetype and it is much more powerful than nautilus-scripts. It should be a function in ubuntu-tweak to replace the nautilus-scripts.
Reference:
http://www.makeuseof.com/tag/add-custom-functionality-to-nautilus-linux/
The ubuntu-tweak should have the option of configuring the boot. Only advanced users know how to easily configure grub.
Below is the mockup of the idea.

I hope the idea pleases.
What about a Plymouth’s theme changer?
Nowadays it can be changed through shell.
Would be nice if this could be configurable through tweaks (as compiz settings)!! Maybe already a link to themes could be added?
Thank you,
By!
I agree with the 2 above comments
For a long time in the forums people ask about the possibility to change the defaull position/alignment of the desktop icons, and no answers to this problem. It would be great if you can find the way to choose the default alignment: top right, bottom left, etc.
Thank you.
Great little utility Ubuntu Tweak is!
Tweak is what I install first as soon as I finish installing Ubuntu on any machine.
A request: Can you integrate this little script mentioned in this blog entry:
http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2010/09/how-to-restore-default-gnome-panels-in-ubuntu/
Orignal script belongs to starryhope.
Adding to my previous post. Maybe you could add the above feature to the desktop recovery that you have in 0.5.6
Hi guys. First of all I want to appreciate the really big work you’ve done, it’s an amazing tool. But… I was thinking in the Debian version, something like Debian Tweak. Have thought on something like that? I’ll love to see the Debian version. Greetings to all!!!

Hi,
Can you add this in a future release?
http://www.webupd8.org/2010/11/alternative-to-200-lines-kernel-patch.html
Just incase Ubuntu decides not to add it in 11.04
Thanks!
I noticed that many of the apps/games I’ve tried leave behind a /home/.appname folder. I suggest adding a .appname folder cleanup for apps/games that are no longer installed.

hi，周。
ubuntu tweak 项目已加入lupa源码赏析频道
用的是0.4.8版本。便于社区新手学习python。
http://code.lupaworld.com
Would like options to remove and move options from system – shut down. I would like to hide suspend and hibernate options in a very easy way.
It would be really cool if there was “reset to defaults” button for every section.
I’d really like to see this in the next release
this work for LinuMint right,
Why not make a version for Debian or LinuxMintDebian using ‘stable’ or ‘testing’, this is possible helpful for user that migrated from Other-OS or Ubuntu LM to Debian or Debian-derivateds
you can use common option fro gnome-tweakin and debian-based repos like skype, opera, swiftfox, an for themes i imagine thah ubuntu themes packing in ubuntu-deb for themes and icons not need a change for why those are onli themes and don’t change ading lib or orthers thing that possible breaking the OS
I just wanted to submit a bug in 0.5.10.
Startup / Login Settings / Play sound at login: Checked does not play sound and Un-checked plays sound.
Thanks,
Patrick
Umm, it actually goes deeper than what I explained. I thought I had it setup to not play a sound, but I was fooled. After re-booting it played the sound again when I logged in. So I went into Tweak again to disable it. Logged out and back in. Sound did not play. I think all is well until I load up my mp3 player and try to play music… no sound there either. I go to adjust my system volume and I get a message it is “Waiting for sound system to respond.” It never responds and I have to re-boot to get my sound system to operate again, and guess what? Logging in plays the sound again.

I would love to donate a small amount, but I live in Brazil, therefore I am Brazilian … But I’m having trouble getting this grant.
It would be possible to donate a sum of money with “https: / / pagseguro.uol.com.br /? rmcl psid = 1 #” or by bank transfer?
Congratulations on this great app, which is Ubuntu-Tweak. Always used and it is perfect.
I noticed, that Linux mint and many sdistros previously based on Ubuntu is moving to Debian
I suggest a limited (in apps, the themes no have problems) version for tweak debian-based distros, like LinuxMintDebian Gnome or XFCE or Fluxbox
Why not…make independent of the desktop (LXDE, Gnome-shell, Unity, Unity-2d, KDE, XFCE, Windows manager standaralone) the tweak usable, mani option are common in all desktops, why not, tihs make a geater the universe of urers than can use U-T for tweaking and no more gnome/Unity/Gnome-shell only user…
I suggest you to integrate developpement of gnome-controle panel and integrate all those good stuff into it.
thank you!!!
it sounds like you have a lot of work ahead of you
I fully understand your decision
But please support other Ubuntu derivatives..
You can Break it in two parts
Ubuntu tweak 6.xx( Only for Ubuntu 11.04 & Unity/GNOME) & Ubuntu tweak classic 6.xx(For Ubuntu derivatives using diff DE & w/o all Ubuntu dependencies like compiz etc)
Where 6.xx get updated often(or testing) & classic one very two-or three months..
or
Why not…make independent of the desktop (LXDE, Gnome-shell, Unity, Unity-2d, KDE, XFCE, Windows manager standaralone) the tweak usable
Please UT has become a part of our lives(especially Source Center) & please give a fraction of time to it please
Please
I wold be happy to see an option to save password in ubuntu-tweak settings and DON’T ENTER IT EVERY SECOND while instralling packages or adding repositories etc.!!!
Just added “Mediainfo Official PPA” to the source repository
hoping to see it available ASAP in Ubuntu-Tweak to make installs easier across several machines
Suggestion!
In the source addition page, there should be an option to enter sources as
deb http://download.webmin.com/download/repository sarge contrib
deb http://webmin.mirror.somersettechsolutions.co.uk/repository sarge contrib
plus upload or copy and paste the key file like jcameron-key.asc
was trying to add Webmin ( http://www.webmin.com/deb.html ) to the source page, but it’s not accepting it
Suggestion…
Could you please change Ubuntu Tweak so it stops pulling in Compiz..??
Compiz does not play well with my system nor a lot of other peoples too.
I do not want to use Compiz but I do want to use Ubuntu Tweak.
Thanks.
Really love Ubuntu Tweak, but I’m missing it on Debian. I hope to see it a Debian Tweak before to long. Thank you for such a wonderful tool!
Love ubuntu tweak …..with all the changes regarding Unity, why not develop a version of tweak for Debian????
It would be really useful and make life soooo much simpler.
Thanks again for a great product.
Why do not you guys make a version for kubuntu
I have ‘accidentally’ gotten 6.x of Ubuntu Tweak running… (I really, really hate Unity, and am trying to find a replacement that works.)
In both instances, the format I have found, was depressing in color (gray on gray), useless in format (I used old Tweak for years, and loved it. This new one seems as useful to me as Unity… And I hate Unity.)
If this is way Tweak is going…
I will find another one.
Sorry… I used to love Ubuntu.. too
This is a “Killer-app”, a “must-have”, but i loved older versions (with the option to direct install other useful or weird software), just like an other pgm. named “Ailurus”. I do not suggest to merge the projects, but if you collaborate… -sorry for my POOR english!-
Idea for Ubuntu Tweak
Mockup: http://i.imgur.com/iMuZJ.png
Unity is still very confusing. Many categories with no applications installed, many unnecessary shortcuts. This customization is extremely necessary. I want to remove items as it did in Gnome 2.
You should consider replacing the Cinnamon ppa (that hasn’t been updated in 12 weeks – dead?) with https://launchpad.net/~gwendal-lebihan-dev/+archive/cinnamon-stable Thats the one that the cinnamon team suggests for Ubuntu users..
Cinnamon in the source panel points to an PPA that hasn’t been update in a long while.
Consider linking to:
http://ppa.launchpad.net/gwendal-lebihan-dev/cinnamon-stable/ubuntu
for Cinnamon stable and
http://ppa.launchpad.net/gwendal-lebihan-dev/cinnamon-nightly/ubuntu
for Cinnamon betas.
Hello
please in the next version add feature disable and enable guest user
there are’t any button in control panel to this feature
pls add it
Thanks
Create a version for Xubuntu with the name Xubuntu Tweak.
These images must be outdated? I have a fresh install of 12.04 Precise and not seeing many of these options. Need options for more theme types, such as GDM themes(not just re-styling the default with gtk. I tried installing AzenisGDMtheme but am at a loss of patience with this tweak tool. Most of the useful features seen in the screenshots are not in the application.
打开速度很快！用的什么主机啊？
hi, thanks for ubuntu tweak, it’s an indispensable app, and thanks for bringing back “apps” (including opera) to install stuff not found in official repos more easily. however, it could be easier still. older versions of tweak had the apps install perfect.
in the old tweak, the ability to select numerous apps at once by clicking the checkbox worked so well, and no need to click a few windows deep to enable the repo/ppa, THEN click the install(or update) for each and every app; that is very tedious and time consuming.
the list of apps with big icons looks nice and everything, but it would be great to have the simple and fast functionality of the older versions of tweak for installing apps… click everything i need at once, then click JUST ONE install button. please bring back that style of one click installs… please?
a version for xubuntu
Include TV-Maxe

Include Jitsi

Would you like a way to configure the placement of icons of open programs on ubuntu (unity). By opening the programs automatically program the buttons icons, rise or lay down on top of the aggregate being opened.
Tweak for ubuntu ist really a great… and mandatory solution.
It would be perfect if all possibilities of “cleaning” the system would be checked by default.
One has to do it manually (!!!) each time… and twice : once on the left list and again a second time on the left list. That’s not optimal at all.
Perhaps an individual possibilty to tweak (or parametrize) Tweak would be a great thing.
Thanks a lot.
Please release a version for Ubuntu 13.04.
Option to disable unity global menu bar!!!
