In Windows there's a Preferences setting that allows you to show tab previews in Windows task bar (multiple tabs, multiple previews) when you hover over the Firefox icon in the task bar. However, in Linux (KDE or Mint), if you have multiple tabs open and you hover over the Firefox icon, it only displays a preview of the currently focused tab (multiple tabs, single preview). Is there a way to get the Windows tab preview functionality in Linux?

Hi there ACDBill, try this add-on that will integrate Firefox with your KDE desktop: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/plasma-integration/

I'm not sure that what you're looking for is possible though.
