A new modified version of the Gnome Shell dock extension has been made by xeXpanderx that sets the dock to bottom by default.
The original dock extension by gcampax can only be set to left or right edges of the screen.
Download Modified Dock Extension
Install the extension by locating the zip file in Gnome Tweak Tool.
WinThumbnails is a dock for GNOME Shell that displays live thumbnails of windows of the running applications.
The dock can be aligned to the left or to the right side of the screen. It also can be configured to autohide and to show thumbnails for all running windows or for minimized ones.
The dock has been originally created by Aleksandr Starun and Dmitriy Kostiuk.

I upgraded Ubuntu 12.04 to 12.10. I use Gnome shell. Gnome 3.6 is working fine, but there are no applications menus. I have tried several suggestions I found online, but I can'g get the menus back. When I click "Activities" I just get a blank page.
After removing all extensions, I now have an icon on the dock that shows all applications.
Gnome Shell places pop up notifications on the middle bottom of screen.
I've made custom Ubuntu with Ubuntu builder. I've installed gnome-shell and cairo-dock from chroot. I've removed Unity from chroot too.
I've edited /etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf, changed user-session = cairo-dock and then I built the custom ubuntu. I then ran it on virtual box. LiveCD successfully showed the Cairo dock but when I change to user-session = gnome-shell, desktop shows unity panel.
I am using gnome3 with Ubuntu 12.10. I am interested in using the new Cairo Dock which seems to replace the gnome top panel. The trouble here is that the top panel overlaps the new Cairo upper docks.
How do I disable the Gnome Shell top panel?
I tried adding display:none to /usr/share/gnome-shell/theme/gnome-shell.css, but this accomplishes nothing.
I have just upgrade gnome-shell 3.0 to 3.3.9 and surprised. Almost no gnome-shell extension are not supporting. I find few in the internet which support new gnome-shell.
?????????WHY????????
One of the most important condition of software developing(Engineering) is to support the previous version as much as possible. Why are gnome-shell developers doing this?
Are there any tricks for speeding up Gnome Shell, such as by disabling any extra "flashy" features?
I tried installing the Disable Window Animations Extension, but I haven't noticed any difference.
I've been using Gnome Shell under Ubuntu 11.10 for a few weeks now, and I generally like the new interface (and much prefer it over Unity).
