If this is "by design", then the design is wrong. If I am writing an application, I have Glade window maximised, Firefox (with docs) maximised, gedit maximised, and few terminal windows. My desktop was really clean when using standard GNOME panels, right now I have to do the following steps:
1. click on gedit window 2. minimize it 3. click on firefox window 4. minimize it 5. click on glade window 6. minimize it Insted of just clicking launchers next to each other OR clicking "Minimize all windows" button on panel. Minimize all windows works in unity, but after opening another window - all windows are coming back. Or - if I have Firefox and Thunderbird maximized - I am browsing the web, the want to have a quick look at thunderbird: - Click on Thunderbird's icon on the launcher - Do whatever you want - Move the mouse to the upper corner of the screen and aim to hit the "minimize" button In GNOME: Click on Thunderbird minimized to maximize, click again to minimize. WITHOUT additional clicks and moving the mouse! Unity adds ~1500 mouse clicks daily and it reduces productivity a lot. It looks good on screenshots though. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/733349 Title: Minimize Application's Windows upon clicking its Launcher Icon To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ayatana-design/+bug/733349/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
