5.24 brought the amazing Overview effect to Plasma, it's beautiful and useful. With Parachute breaking in 5.23 the Overview effect was highly anticipated and now that it's native, a user no longer needs to install a separate Kwin script to get this awesome virtual desktop switcher / window previewer.

I used to use Present Windows Button to activate Parachute, but now with Overview being my preferred desktop switcher, there was no way to activate it with a mouse click, just a hotkey. So, I wrote a simple script with the qdbus command to activate the Overview effect, grabbed the script's .desktop entry from ~/.local/shared/applications and placed it in my Latte panel, then changed the icon. The result looks exactly as if I were using the Present Windows widget.
