How may I move window icons to the left in Gnome 3.14 under Ubuntu 15.04? This question has been asked before, but considerably older versions of Ubuntu and Gnome.

They are already there. I don't want to bring 'em back. – empedokles Aug 03 '15 at 19:35

Read my answer and you would see, that there is described how you can move the icons at the left side and so on. – A.B. Aug 03 '15 at 19:38

In a terminal:
$ gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.wm.preferences button-layout 'close,minimize,maximize:'
$ gsettings set org.gnome.settings-daemon.plugins.xsettings overrides "{'Gtk/DecorationLayout':<'close,minimize,maximize:'>}"

1The second line is what did the trick for me. Using gnome-tweaks i could set the window icons to the left for most apps, but not the gnome ones. – defuzed Nov 01 '18 at 15:10
