SwitchGlass

SwitchGlass adds a dedicated application switcher to your Mac. You can customize its appearance,

size

, and position on each attached display, including hiding it on selected displays. Use it to bring one or all of an app’s windows to the front, or as a drag-and-drop target to open files.

 

The following app switcher attributes can be customized individually for each attached display :

• Visibility – Permanently hide, show, or auto-hide the app switcher. Auto-hide keeps the app switcher hidden until the mouse cursor touches the region of the screen edge where the app switcher is positioned.

• Position – Move the app switcher to one of eight different positions on each screen.

• Orientation – Make the app switcher horizontal or vertical in a given position.

• Material – Change the appearance of the app switcher background to one of four possible choices (see

screenshot

above) including a mode where it automatically matches the system appearance (e.g, dark when dark mode is active, light otherwise).

• Corner Style and Radius – Choose from three corner styles: square, circle, or “squircle” (a “continuous” rounded corner style). The corner radius can also be adjusted.

• Icon

Size

– Adjust the

size

of app icons in the switcher from 16 to 256 points.

• Icon Padding – Adjust the padding between icons from 0% to 100% of the configured icon

size

.

• Margin – Adjust the amount of space around the app switcher.

Additionally, the following global settings may be customized :

• App Sort Order – Sort apps by name or launch order, descending or ascending.

• App Filtering – Show all apps or just those with windows on the current display.

• Menu Bar Icon – Choose from three possible menu bar icons.

• App Exclusions – Select apps that should never appear in the app switcher.

Here’s how the app switcher works in its default configuration :

• Click an app icon to bring all windows from that app to the front.

• Hold down the Shift key while clicking an app icon to bring just one window
