Hi Franz,
They are indeed missing in Wayland, even when forcing the setting with Gnome Tweak Tool -- does it work for you? I'm on Ubuntu Gnome 17.04. Out of curiosity, what was the rationale behind this design decision? It seems weird to remove something without providing a replacement or alternative.
Thanks!

Hey Sebastien,
to not have any desktop icons per default is a design decision by gnome and has nothing to do with Wayland.
You can bring them back with the extra settings in gnome tweak tools... I have never missed them once I got used to having a clean desktop though.
If they are missing only in Wayland that might be a bug.
Hope that helps.Am 18.

Is this a design decision, or a purely technical decision that will get resolved in the (hopefully) near future?Thanks,-- Sébastien
