Ohh.. that i have to investigate. I had a plan to map some functions like <super key=""> to a mouse button (have 4 that i don't use) but haven't gotten to it yet. ;)

Activities Configurator - is one that i like especially.. it gives you some nice options to change the activities button. I have an Arch logo there now. ;)

Yeah, I just use the Frippery Application Menu, that gives me option for icon &/or text, or both, plus doubles as a menu, though I rarely use it as such.

I map the menu key to synapse, been doing that for years on every desktop I use. A touch quicker than overview & it's become natural for me.

Cool! I think my most favorite these days is the 'Show desktop from overview'. It was a recent find but the ability to click the empty space in the overview and minimize everything has really grown on me.

I retired the 'window Buttons' because of it.

Next favorite has to be 'Maximus'. I used to modify my themes to do what it does, this is much easier.

Yeah, can't argue against that. I did use 'Show desktop from overview' awhile but removed it as I didn't use it as much. Maybe should install it again ;)

Maximus is truly the awesomest! ;)

Yeah, 'Maximus' is awesome.

Another I've grown to really like is 'quick close from overview', instead of the middle button, I mapped it to the right-button, which is much more intuitive for me.

It took me some conscious effort to use the 'show desktop..' extension, but now I wouldn't do without it.

I only just removed 'window buttons' last night because I realized it was no longer being used. :)
