Ok. Few different things here.

The blue icon is set to complete transparency. That way, what is below the formerly blue icon, the desktop, serves as the reference point for the widget that is on top of it. Best to show it.





I have four desktops, the fourth one, visible by the icon, is active, hence I need three switchers to reach every possible desktop. The widget for desktop 1 is fully visible in this screenshot, for number two half visible and for number three just slightly.

Now, nicolai's icon can be replaced of course, but there is no active state indicator. Hence this solution. Al be it a somewhat ugly hack, it does help me to keep my desktop clean and uncluttered, a.k.a. to minimize chaos, of which I have plenty.
