Open martinandersen3d opened 3 years ago

martinandersen3d commented 3 years ago

Sorry, this might not be the right place, but I want to give it a try:

What do you think of this concept? https://youtu.be/TS4lDvBrdzY

💎Using the KEYBOARD arrow keys: 💎You can switch program/desktop 💎Search programs or open windows and Launch programs 💎Move windows from one desktop to another 💎With this concept you can do it all from one screen

Looking forward to hear you oppinion? :smile:

While the concept itself is cool, I think it deviates so much from Parachute’s original idea (being an overview of the open windows, with the desktops as a bonus), that it should be its own thing, maybe sharing some of the codebase of Parachute, but definitely a standalone script, and not a different edition / new version of Parachute or something you would access through Parachute’s settings. It is also different usability. The window thumbnails are smaller, so it is harder to discern which is which. I think this is better suited to be an alternative Alt-Tab switcher, instead of an overview.

I agree with @koma111 on this one.
