It appears that SUSE maybe abandoning GNOME - SLES 15 GNOME has only the very basic setup. No longer can you change the layout, scalling or theme like you could in SLES 12. Also miss the right click to call up a terminal. Looking into what other options maybe available like KDE. ---

Hi Hmmm, that seems to be FUD? I have my SLES 15 with workstation extension themed out no problem?

You maybe correct, I found that the gnome-tweak-tool is still there (just hidden - no longer in settings that I see) Once I started it up I was able to configure the desktop like we have it in SLES 12. As for the workstation extensions does that require an additional license ? I’ll look in to the workstations extensions and see whats available. Thank you ---
