Description

Shows a button on the edge of the screen for each minimized window. Click to maximize again.

Shows a button on the edge of the screen for each minimized window. Click to maximize again.

Includes settings that let you customize it:

  • Position: top, bottom, left and right
  • Cover behaviour: front, leave space, autohide and autohide always
  • Button Style
  • Margins
  • Show in Overview (or not)
  • Per Workspace Buttons (or always show all buttons)
  • Drag-and-Drop behaviour

Touch support: With the right settings, the extension is actually becoming quite usable on touch-only devices:

  • enable drag scroll hack(Settings/Misc.): use button drag movement to control container scroll, since touch scroll is not working on the button-container.

  • autohide global event hook(Settings/Misc.): for autohide on touch devices. its insanity, but works fine. But only use it for touch AND autohide.

  • Autohide: set detect container size (Settings/Cover Options). Size 1 works for nicely calibrated touch display, especially with a pen. Adjust size if that is not working for you.

  • enable snapback (Settings/Misc.): snap back button if dropped outside the buttoncontainer. lets not have windows open on lazy swiping.
