            Bug ID: 449846
           Summary: Missing features for replacing present windows
           Product: kwin
           Version: 5.24.0
          Platform: Other
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: task
          Priority: NOR
         Component: effects-overview
          Assignee: kwin-bugs-n...@kde.org
          Reporter: k...@fuchsnet.ch
  Target Milestone: ---

As per discussion in the VDG, currently missing features in the overview effect
to be able to replace the other effect(s): 

-- needed before replacement

* Show only windows of a specific desktop
* Show only windows of a specific application

(With keybindings each) 

These are needed because e.g. task manager has an option to use the effect in
which the windows of a grouped application are shown 

* Possibility to set a flag to disable the virtual desktop bar on top

needed for the above, mostly, since it doesn't make sense to have a desktop bar
in this situation 

--- would be good before replacement

* Possibility to configure mouse buttons and their effects, mainly for pulling
a window to the current workspace, but also for people who want to disable
closing 

* show the window previews of the windows matching the filter you just entered
in the text field 


Present windows also has some other options, e.g. ignoring minimized windows
and a more fine grained configurability of placement and presentation, not sure
if / how often these are used. The above are more functionality than aesthetics
and I think at least some of them are a must have before present windows can be
replaced.
