Feature Request - Sound Applet: Add Volume Percentage

[trymeouteh]

Please add option to show the volume percentage in the sound applet in the panel.

And to show the volume percentage in the volume icon that appears when you increase/decrease the volume using the keyboard.

I would very much like this change to be made, it is quite uncomfortable and useless for the percentage of the volume to appear in a pop-up message
I prefer a thousand times a number that is always shown
I understand the pop-up message in the panel icon, but in the part where you raise the volume is uncomfortable

@icarter09 whatever happened to this? I actually want this.

Either on the applet or on the OSD.

There's a post on the forums on how to edit osdWindow.js to show the percentage (but it's not perfect) so people actually want this or something similar to this.

@icarter09 any updates on this issue?

[icarter09]

The volume percentage appears if you enable Show volume in tooltip in the Sound settings.

[raniesantos]

@icarter09 but that's just a tooltip, that's different.

The issue above specifically refers to having the number always visible without the need to hover over anything.

Re-read the above comments carefully.

Here is a rough image edit of what I mean, and what I think the person that originally posted this means.

@icarter09 nothing? no further comments after I clarified it?

@icarter09 hello?
