Addon currently does not work on Gnome 40.

Also instruction in README .md to use git clone to install plugin, installs v7 according to metadata. Gnome 40 extensions manager automatically updates this to v8. Not sure where that one comes from?

Hi, you can add the version "40" to the "shell-version" list of metadata.json and it should work :)
(you can reload gnome by pressing alt + f2, write "r" then enter)

Hi @BenjaminGaymay,

I've tested to simply put version in metadata.json, but I got error:

Error: No property expand on GtkTreeView

Hi @Pierrotws

I made an update today an I got the same error : Error: No property expand on GtkTreeView
Did you manage to fix it ?

[BenjaminGaymay]

I found a much better solution !
Tilix provide a --quake option, so you just need to create a shortcut on your desktop to toggle the window.

I found the quake-mode shell extension to be an excellent replacement for tilixdropdown in Gnome 40+.
