[FR] Multiple rows / grid for previews of large number of windows

[simonnageleisen]

Problem or Need

If I have a large number of windows open for one app (eg. 20 browser windows (don't judge)) it only shows the preview for 8.5 of them on the size setting "Can you even see this?" and I have to scroll left/right to see more.

Proposed Solution

If there are so many windows that they cannot all be shown in one row within the width of the screen, having them spill over into a second (...third etc.) row instead of keeping them in one row and forcing the user to scroll left/right to see the other previews.

Alternative Solutions

Dynamically size the previews so all previews of the open windows of one app fit within the width of the screen (but yes, having 20 windows open probably would make the previews awfully small then)

Additional context

Current DockDoor preview:

Example of desired preview (using DockMate):

Settings for this in DockMate:

Potential Impact

The user will be able to see all previews for all open windows of an app at once and does not need to scroll right to see older windows.

Edit: Same thing for the Alt + Tab Window switcher, that also seems to show all windows in one row instead of in a grid / multiple rows.
