No Battery Percentage or Display

Asked by Clarence Fung

does anyone know how to get the battery percentage to show in the top right corner? It used to be under power settings but since v24.04 it is no longer a selection or viewable item. Is it possible that this could be added to the next upgrade. I would hate to have to go back to v20.04 in order to show a battery percentage again. Thanks!

sorry I forgot to mention that I am using Ubuntu v24.04 Desktop on a Surface Pro 10 for business. I had a Surface Pro 8 & 9 which I used to run Ubuntu v22 and v23. Both past Ubuntu versions had a toggle that I could turn on for displaying battery power and percentages under the power settings. This is the only version v24.04 that did not have those toggles in the power settings.
