Show Space Number - differentiate between shortcuts

[hiltbru]

I'm using AltTab to manage my spaces, using the following shortcuts:

Command+Tab cycles through every window in the currently active space. Here, I don't need to see the space number labels, as I know that every window is open in the space I'm currently within:

Option+Tab cycles through all windows open on the computer. Here, I do want to see the space number labels, as it gets pretty confusing without them.

There's currently no way to set up this sort of behaviour - showing space numbers is an all-or-nothing type of setting. Same goes for every other Thumbnail setting - you can't, for example, make one shortcut that shows plain windows and another that shows the same windows with detailed status indicators.

I think it would be a big improvement to allow the customisation of Thumbnails Styling to be tied to specific shortcuts. This would open the door for more dynamic setups.

I've implemented the following change: if the user has a single screen, and is using a shortcut showing only visible Spaces, then AltTab won't show Space Labels 👍

One potential issue came to mind when considering the "Show windows from screens - Screen showing AltTab" setting.

If the user has both Visible Spaces and the above setting on, but is using multiple monitors, I think Space Labels should also be hidden.

This is a bit more niche, but I think it's worth implementing that logic into this as well!

@bhiltunen good catch! I've implemented it. It will be in the next release.
Thank you 🙇
