Same here in Ubuntu 18.04. Monitor manager and other gnome extensions are disappearing from the top panel. Alt-F2 r, like other said, helps to get them back. Extensions are still running though when the bug appears.
I noticed this behavior some time ago, maybe 3-4 months ago, after an upgrade but yet it is regular. When I lock/unlock the screen the bug happens but maybe in other situations too. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-shell-extension-appindicator in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1801757 Title: all app indicators disappear Status in gnome-shell-extension-appindicator package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Occasionally all of my app indicators just disappear. Right now, for example the only icons in my top bar are the wifi icon, the volume icon, and the battery charge icon. Everything else is gone. The applications associated with the missing indicators, e.g., Dropbox, Cloud Station Drive, Pritunl, Shutter, are still running, but their app indicators are no longer there. The only way I've found to get them back is to log out and log back in. I have no idea what provokes this behavior.
