You might consider: Using alt-tab to switch between windows/applications instead of clicking on a taskbar? If the default alt-tab isn't to your liking (by default it lists all applications and windows in those applications seperately) you can change it to do every window instead. or Hit the 'meta' key (the windows key on many keyboards) to go to the overview and all your apps, workspaces are shown there. You can even hit meta and type the first part of whatever you are looking for is, and if it's running, it will take you directly to it (ie, 'fire' return, takes me to my firefox window. more shortcuts at https://help.gnome.org/users/gnome-help/stable/shell-keyboard-shortcuts.html.en or If you have a touchpad you can use gestures to switch to the overview, between desktops, between apps. See https://forty.gnome.org/ for more info. Finally if that doesn't work, you could look at extensions. There's likely extensions that do what you like. See https://extensions.gnome.org I would advise trying to adjust your workflow to use keyboard or overview thought. That way you avoid extensions that might break and it actually (IMHO) ends up being easier in the end. Hope that helps, kevin
