Add more options to thumbnails #42

It would be nice to be able to resize the thumbnail of the app, have the option to display it when hovering over the app and cut parts of it to use as pop up apps that don't have it.

I agree but don't know how to do that.

TavoAdr commented 3 years ago

I do not know either. The tricky thing is that I knew several extensions that did this, but they all disappeared over time, but congratulations for the extension, I can't use gnome without knowing which workspace each thing is in.

Great idea, @TavoAdr. @fthx could give a look on the source of the following Chrome extension: → https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/windowed-floating-youtube/gibipneadnbflmkebnmcbgjdkngkbklb

Besides having the PIP mode, it offers some other good options. It would be nice if the thumbnail Babar generate could be used as PIP, appears in all workspaces at the same time, like the Chrome one does :) Nevertheless, great job you did with this extensions, and although I'm a GNOME beginner, I've already fell in love with it. Thanks for sharing :)
