Dash to Dock v63 (released on Apr 02 2018) added the new click action “minimize-or-previews”. IMHO, this is by far the most user-friendly click action of all supported ones. Unfortunately, this didn't become the default in Ubuntu 18.10. Currently, the file
/usr/share/glib-2.0/schemas/10_ubuntu-dock.gschema.override contains the setting click-action='previews' (The click action 'previews' was introduced in Dash to Dock v60.) I propose to replace the above line with click-action='minimize-or-previews' I am convinced that this change would satisfy the great majority of Ubuntu users. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-shell-extension-ubuntu-dock in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1723835 Title: Dock - Clicking icon doesn't minimize Status in gnome-shell-extension-ubuntu-dock package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: I have open Firefox, it is maximized. Clicking on it's icon in the Dock does nothing, I expect it would minimize Firefox. Unity, KDE and Windows behave in this manor. Window doesn't have to be maximized to show this behavior, clicking the icon in the Dock will bring up a selection popup if there are multiple instances of that application open, but if there is only one it does nothing. Tested with Gnome Terminal, Firefox, Chromium, Files, VLC, Terminator, all behave the same.
