Hello Milan, I'm having quite the same idea:
2011/5/11 Milan Oravec <[email protected]>: > 1. is there in gnome-shell any way to show all windows (running > applications) from all workspaces at once similar to OS X Exposé or compiz > scale windows picker? In activity overview are showed only running > applications from one workspace. I did like the all-Windows-Exposé of compiz and wanted to have it in every window manager, but then I was running KDE 4.5 and got used to their workspace overview: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4XXEub2fJOg At 2:08 the 4 workspace-overview is activated. It has all the windows presented in a per-workspace exposé. It's just like all-windows-Exposé but additionally grouped by workspace. I think that is a real enhancement to the normal Exposé. What do you think? This new grouped-all-workspace-exposé somehow merges the three overviews current-workspace-Exposé, all-windows-exposé and workspace-switcher (that I had on three different hot corners before). The gnome-shell overview is already a merge of App-Launcher, Taskbar and (not that perfect) Exposé and workspace-switcher. I would like to see the features of grouped-all-workspace-exposé somehow integrated into gnome-shell. To do so, I would suggest the following steps: * Replace the grid-exposé by native-window-placement-exposé. => Already implemented and easily testable via the gnome-shell extension attached to this bug: https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=615378 * Make exposé inside workspace thumbnails available. * Think about enlarging/rearranging workspace thumbnails to make window picking easier. Would that solve your problem sufficiently?
