Minimizing is pretty much an obsolete notion. I don't miss the minimization button at all; simply adjust your workflow. Use workspaces appropriately, >2. Switching between widows is PAINFUL.

Workspaces with many windows are much easier to manage in Shell, and movig windows between workspaces is much more integrated; so I actually use workspaces more. >That would leave the "activities" only with one view, the >"applications" and think about it. It makes sense and maps much better >to the Gnome 2 design. Gnome 2 is dead, long live Gnome 3! As a very skeptical Gnome 2 user I am totally sold on Gnome 3. It is different, but different better; but u have to adapt your workflow. -- Adam Tauno Williams _______________________________________________ gnome-shell-list mailing list gnome-shell-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gnome-shell-list
