Workspace Switcher Popup with Thumbnails (GNOME Shell Extension)

Maintenance Buy Me A Coffee donate button

Repository status - Abandoned

Let’s be honest: I don’t have enough time to maintain this project any more. I personally do not use this extension because happy with workflow with just one workspace. I do not have motivation to make it work with new versions of Gnome Shell. The last supported version of GNOME Shell is v3.32.

If you got used to the functionality provided by this extension, check Workspace Matrix that does basically the same as this extension and even more (psst, it can arrange workspaces in a grid).

What was this extension about?

GNOME Shell has a default popup displayed when switching between workspaces using (default) shortcuts CTRL+ALT+UP or CTRL+ALT+DOWN that looks like this:

This extension makes the popup look similar to the workspace thumbnails box that is displayed in the right panel in window overview mode (displayed after pressing SUPER key) so it is easier to see the contents of the workspaces:
