Menu bar not working correctly with Dash to Panel in GNOME

[alicerunsonfedora]

• Your OS: Fedora 27 (4.14.18-300.fc27.x86_64 from running uname -r)
• App version: 0.2.6

Note:

• Steps to reproduce the issue:

  1. Install the "Dash to Panel" extension for GNOME Shell (and TopIcons-Plus, to restore system tray icons).
  2. Install Mstdn and configure normally.

• What exactly happens:

  • The app will work normally and will display Mastodon content just fine. However, the app seems to get confused as to where exactly the system tray icon is. I installed the Dash to Panel and TopIcons-Plus extensions to GNOME Shell, which places itself on the bottom of the screen. However, I assume that Mstdn is not taking note of that and it is still thinking that the GNOME panel is up at the top, forcing itself to inhabit the upper right-hand corner of the screen.
  • Switching to windowed mode remedies it, but it's not a permanent solution that works as the icon in the system tray will disappear.
