There is a Task Switcher called Thumbnail Grid that pretty much does this. "Grid" is the same but the thumbnails are even bigger. if you don't see them, you probably need to install the kdeplasma-addons package. It is installed and there are a lot of options, but Grid is not the thing I am searching for. My Idea was to merge 2 existing features. My current workaround is to open the overview effect and select it via mouse. Overview has no arrow key or alt+tab window switching. It also would be a Task Switcher that clearly shows where to expect the next window and gives a idea what windows are open on which monitor. Here to demonstrate the visional difference with my multi monitors setup: 5.23 Overview effect: https://i.imgur.com/Ns2x4mG.jpg Task Switcher "Grid": https://i.imgur.com/pYTwhGr.jpg Do these new comments and screenshots help? This was meant as a Feature Request and not a Bug Report. I apologize for the misunderstanding. Merging the Overview effect and Thumbnail Grid task switcher isn't really technically feasible, sorry. Suggestions for new features usually make sense only in the context of having a problem that needs solving. Is it that the Thumbnail Grid task switcher doesn't appear on the screen you're currently looking at when it appears?
