I did see that gsettings line for changing the highlighted gedit line. Had the page opened in my browser for days. Gone now. Can’t find it anywhere.
What was it again?
Sorry. I clicked the wrong ‘reply’ button, I’ll retry: can you post that gsettings gedit tweak, please?

The L5 by default is set to remember the last 1000 commands you’ve issued, so it can be tedious to run the history command and then look for that obscure and lengthy command you ran weeks ago, although the search box in the terminal can find it if you remember a word it contains.
I made a little utility to export the recent terminal history to a text file and list only the unique commands alphabetically, which whittles it down for easier reviewing. It consists of a short bash script, a desktop …
Have you tried this?
No, but it sounds great!

You can also use history | grep gsettings
if you sort of know in general what you used before (or grep
combined with any likely-present keyword).

Seems like you already saw this, didn’t the “phosh-lockscreen” section in the following post, worked for you ?

Hat tip to foss2go and the original poster on reddit!

Selected background image can be a .jpg or a .png, possibly other file types.
In the terminal, create the file gtk.css using any installed text editor: nano ~/.config/gtk-3.0/gtk.css . Alternately, you can create the file manually in t…
You wrote about the “pulldown panel”, did you mean the hidden top panel holding the settings ?
Seems like Guido Günther calls it the “Quick settings” panel, so maybe you can try and create a section with the name “quick-settings”
