To me it makes perfect sense - 'show desktop' shows desktop to give access to it momentarily but restores everything as soon as desktop is no longer needed. It does not minimise any windows - if it did, there would be a some sort of conflict when you start new application but all opened windows remain minimised... If you have many windows open it will be quite annoying to restore each of them. I think you are looking for function to minimise all windows, but that would be slightly different action. Here's what I do: I just press Ctrl+F2 to switch to second desktop and then Ctrl+F1 when I need to return. > My argument was addressed to the apparent claim that there was no > evidence the bug was current, since it applied to an old version of > gnucash.

Hopefully there is a keyboard shortcut (or option to set one)... All the best, Dmitry. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
