On request of GNOME Classic users, we add GNOME2-like workspace previews when using a horizontal workspace layout. The previews scale a lot worse than the menu though, with the risk that they take up all the available width in extreme cases. Address this by also taking the number of workspaces into account, and switch to the menu when we have more than six. This is particularly important now that we switched to a horizontal layout by default. Part-of: <https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell-extensions/-/merge_requests/165>
GNOME Shell Extensions
GNOME Shell Extensions is a collection of extensions providing additional and optional functionality to GNOME Shell.
Since GNOME Shell is not API stable, extensions work only against a very specific version of the shell, usually the same as this package (see "configure --version"). The extensions in this package are supported by GNOME and will be updated to reflect future API changes in GNOME Shell.
The GNOME wiki has more information about GNOME Shell Extensions, as well as some general information about GNOME Shell.
Bugs should be reported to the GNOME bug tracking system.
