<p><em>GNOME Classic</em> is a feature for users who prefer a more traditional
29
desktop experience. While <em>GNOME Classic</em> is based on <em>GNOME 3</em>
30
technologies, it provides a number of changes to the user interface, such as
31
the <gui>Applications</gui> and
32
<gui>Places</gui> menus on the top bar, and a window
33
list at the bottom of the screen.</p>

<p>The window list at the bottom of the screen provides access to all your open

windows and applications and lets you quickly minimize and restore them.</p>
59
<p>At the right-hand side of the window list, GNOME displays a short
60
identifier for the current workspace, such as <gui>1</gui> for the first
61
(top) workspace. In addition, the identifier also displays the total number
62
of available workspaces. To switch to a different workspace, you can click
63
the identifier and select the workspace you want to use from the menu.</p>
65
<p>If an application or a system component wants to get your attention, it
66
will display a blue icon at the right-hand side of the window list. Clicking
67
the blue icon shows the <link xref="shell-notifications">message tray</link>,
68
which lets you access all your notifications.</p>
