Review of "Simple Taskbar" version 19

Details Page Preview

Turns GNOME Shell's native panel into a configurable taskbar with pinned and running apps, live window previews, an optional grid Alt-Tab switcher, multi-monitor support, auto-hide, workspace isolation, and an optional Eleven-style Start Menu. Place the panel at the top or bottom, customize its size, spacing, transparency and theme, arrange Shell items, or switch to a clean native-style GNOME panel and retain all customization options offered by the extension. Activating some global search results may copy provider-supplied text to the clipboard.
