[Feature Request]: Floating Indicator
What feature?
Diligence: I'm on v2, searched for this and found nothing, not relevant.
I'm a big fan of WVDH.
However, cannot see the tray indicator due to the automatically hiding taskbar.
It would be useful if there was a floating indicator — unrelated to the taskbar at all — showing my current virtual desktop, appearing at some fixed position on the screen, visible either temporarily (when switching), or constantly. I am more concerned with the latter, a constant indicator.
The topmost area of the screen is usually filled by the Title Bar of whatever window that's currently open, so it could go there no problem, or wherever else the user chooses.
Currently, switching causes a label of the VD that was switched into to appear. This is nice, but in my opinion insufficient, orientation.
Here's a similar example from the Microsoft Store.
Windows Version
Windows 10
This is what I was hoping to find when I searched for such an extension and found WVDH.

for the record, I've since found da-rth/yasb exists, and am no longer in need of this particular feature.
