You can open/switch to applications on the taskbar using SUPER+. A great feature, but hard to use due to the fact you have to count the icons..

Is there a way to show the positions on these icons?

Simple solution: write the numbers on a piece of paper and tape it on your monitor next to the taskbar.

By “next”, you mean below? You could also use write on a bit of clear tape and put it right on the screen, like an overlay. Of course you have to beware that the taskbar can change easily in Windows 7. You can drag-and-drop the icons to re-arrange them, so you may find that the numbers you memorized are now incorrect. They also expand and shrink when you run a program, so an overlay might not work. – Synetech Jun 30 '11 at 2:51
