Thanks for the request; we can't do much of anything more with previews in our current version, as it'll take some engine rewriting, but better preview options are on our list for Witch 5.

HyperDock and HyperSwitch both have a feature where they'll pop up a 
preview of the window that's the same size and location as the real window. 
That is, they make it look like the actual window is temporarily raised to 
the foreground. This makes it super quick and easy to tell which window is 
about to be activated. Obviously I like Witch more than HyperSwitch, but 
this one feature is really sweet. Witch already has the "Pop up a preview 
of the selected window automatically" checkbox, so this is a request for 
one further checkbox that allows the preview to be the window itself, as it 
were.

Thanks!
