This is a window list applet that is aimed at resembling the Windows 7 taskbar (at least partially). Some of the key features are:

Hi there - I really like this applet but have a feature request. It would be good to be able to allow all active apps from all workspaces to be shown, and not just those in the current workspace (this is useful in the default window applet and I am lazy switching between workspaces). rcrx-4 months ago
Really needs the option to close windows by middle click on panel icon and open new instance with middle click on thumbnail. Otherwise it's a really great applet. Sven71-5 months ago
Hi, Cobinja, thanks for this great applet! I have a feature request though: would it be possible to make grouped windows scrollable with a mouse scroll wheel, please? You know, first scroll to reveal if minimized, next scroll(s) to reveal the next window(s) in the particular group (if any). Michael Arbet-6 months ago
Hello, after seraching for good WindowList applet I found this is great! Thanks! Only one thing: I can pin an icon as a favorite one but this can be done only on particular workspace. That's confusing. More simple method would be just 'Pin as favorite' and done (for all workspaces). Cobinja-6 months ago
I change dit to the current pinning style with version 2.0. Version 3.0 will probably have the option to either pin globally or workspace-locally. Brahim Salem-10 months ago
great one thanks Pedro Araújo-10 months ago
This works better for me than IcingTaskManager which has issues displaying the correct currently opened apps on each workspace. For me though there's a major feature missing in this applet, it would be nice to have app launching/raising hotkeys as with Windows taskbars, and as seen in Icing Task Manager with the <Super> + 1,2.. hotkeys to raise the corresponding nth app. Andrei Sosnov-1 month ago
+1 about hotkeys. Very useful feature. wolnerberg-11 months ago

Great applet. I just wish the icons of opened windows could be customised. For example, if I open Double Commander the Double Commander icon appears, and the same icon be pinned to Cinnamon panel. However, if I'm trying to emulate Windows 7 look with this applet then I need the Total Commander icon rather than Double Commander icon. Even with Double Commander running. Could this be implemented? Cobinja-1 year ago
I don't think a windowlist applet is the right place to do that. You can customize the icon in the settings of Cinnamon's builtin menu applet Yes, you're right. I have done exactly that. Thank you. mallardtheduck-1 year ago
Some windows don't show up (e.g. Spotify), making them inaccessible if minimised. Real shame really; a very nice window list if only it worked... As the creator, I opened an issue on Github: https://github.com/Cobinja/CobiWindowList/issues/3 magellan-13016-1 year ago
Nice Applet with a big plus compared to Icing Task Manager : Only one thumbnail preview for PlayOnLinux apps when Icing Task manager show two. But two bugs with Cinnamon 3.2.7 on Linux Mint 18.1 : No close icon on each preview, and size of label width has no effect. There is no way to change the size. And always a bug with Thunderbird with FireTray extension : when we click on the FireTray icon, the applet count 2 windows but when we click on the Thunderbird icon on the applet, only one window is count. Nice work ! Please fix theses issues and it will be perfect. Thanks, David. Firetray icon issue solved with extension parameters. The only issues remaining are no close button on thumbnails preview and thumbnails size can't be changed. Finally no bugs. I just discovered that only label size can be changed in config and it does not affect the thumbnails. So, I would like to change the thumbnails size and have a close button on each one. That's would be nice. Denis Shcheglov-1 year ago
add please 'Open new window' by Ctrl+LeftButtonMouse Lars Mueller-1 year ago
Maybe. In the meantime, try middle click ;) angelo-1 year ago
great applet - thanks a lot! Piiit-1 year ago
Hi, what is the difference to IcingTaskManager? NikoKrause-1 year ago
Best window list with app grouping for Cinnamon. Leightweight and fast! @kreha1 They don't have the same style. The difference depends on the used theme. kreha1-1 year ago
@Cobinja: Yes, I know, but closing multiple windows is much quicker with middle click... at least that's what I used to do on Windows - Icing Task Manager (https://cinnamon-spices.linuxmint.com/applets/view/269) has that functionality... After using the applet for a few hours I noticed that pinned apps will have the same style as the ones who are running, meaning you cannot distinguish which apps are running ;/. @kreha1: There's that little close button on the top right of each preview (shown in the middle preview of my screenshot above). It closes the corresponding window. Great applet. It would be even better if we could something like middle-click on the preview to close the window.
