Thumbnail Grid [Merged Into KDE]
Source (link to git-repo or to original if based on someone elses unmodified work): https://github.com/Zren/kwin-tabbox-thumbnail_grid
This theme has been merged upstream into the kdeplasma-addons package.
Thumbnail + Icon + Caption + Close Button
There are a few other skins like this, but they don't work in KDE 5.5 (Kubuntu 16.04) or later.
Note: If you tried an older broken KWin switcher, KWin won't use a skin until it's restarted (logout+login). Even the working skins (like this one) won't work.

* Fix anchor warning spam.

v4 - Jan 9 2017 4 years ago
* Use subdiff's recursive algorithm to determine how many columns should be used.
* The number of columns is frozen while the switcher is visible (so closing windows doesn't move the close button around).
v3 4 years ago
* Disable highlighted item change animation

One feature request is mouse integration. Similar to the ctrl-tab behavior in firefox: hover and click. This would speed up my workflow considerably. Thanks for looking into this.

It don't preview on hover though, not sure if I'll add that as you need to ignore where the mouse is when the window appears, and only "select" when the mouse has moved a minimum distance.

Anyhow, I can't use the mouse in the way you describe. Any idea what setting is causing this?

I agree, and I wouldn't use it. It would be nice to have an hover style though. I think Firefox has a nice way of doing this.

Which Distro? What version of Plasma, KDE Frameworks? Check the "Info Center" app.

And yeah, you're right that it doesn't highlight the "hovered" window via an outline or... anything. Hmmm. The "Breeze" skin doesn't either.

This does not work for me, but I think something with clicks/mouse/window settings is messed up for me anyway - very annoying. When I try with the Breeze TaskSwitcher it behaves the exact same way (so has nothing to do with ThumbnailGrid). A "hover highlight" might be very sexy, I tell you ;)

To fix this, I deleted:
~/.local/share/kwin/tabbox/kpluginindex.json
Then I closed and opened System Settings back up, and Thumbnail Grid was listed again.
