On the windows task bar when you have multiple tabs opened in say Chrome you can hover over the icon and it will show you a small window with all the tabs you have opened, is there a function similar to this on the dock? I have 3 monitors and move tabs across all the screens, currently on my dock if I just click my chrome icon it opens the last tab I used. I have to alt tab through all my opened programs to find the tab I want to bring up.

Chrome is a queer sort of beast. You might get the tabs displayed when you hover over the icon in the NextSTART Taskbar, but I don't think there's any way to have this in NeXus. You do know that Chrome = Google and that you're gifting Google all your data - pages looked at, browser version, OS, geo location, etc. etc. There's no privacy there at all, nor security.

Did you already enable the 'show running applications on this dock' setting?
