Description Maxim 2024-03-17 12:21:54 UTC
SUMMARY
Despite using `Task Manager` widget to show icons with window titles, it still defaults to icon-only view when many windows are opened.

Could we please have a configurable threshold to switch between icon+titles and icon-only views or a setting to disable the icon-only view?

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Create a `Task Manager` widget
2. Open 10-15 windows

OBSERVED RESULT
Titles are hidden in the Task Manager and icon-only view is used

EXPECTED RESULT
Titles are shown no matter what, because it's a user preference. (I do actually prefer an icon with even one letter shown than icons only).

Could we please have a configurable threshold to switch between icon+titles and icon-only views or a setting to disable the icon-only view?
