Hello
Does anyone know if the above exists in OS X natively? My gf has a thing where her Kensington mouseworks software can be configured so the middle button brings up a little app switcher like we used to be able to pull down from the finder in os9.
i was wondering if this is part of the mouseworks product or if i can use the ability of my macally software to imitate keyboard shortcuts to similar effect. any advice appreciated!
cheers

 that argument is old, and windows already has an app switcher that the guys at LiteSwitch modeled it after, so it's not like the LiteSwitch guys were so original or anything and Apple is stealing their ideas.

It doesn't?
And the makers of GoMac (OS 9) also included a pop up app switcher to mimic windows.

Yeah it does, cmd-tab does this now instead of the dumb app switching from the dock thing it did before.

It definitely needs some more options to be useful.. such as set max icon size.. it looks like something from fisher price.
Yes, that's the actualy size. And no, it doesn't get any smaller.

I'm rather new at this, but Konfabulator.com has a great little widget for this.
