I added cononical-design to the report because their design is wrong. There are several very good suggestions in the comments here about how to do it right. Specificallly, #335 sounds very minimal, unobtrusive, easy to implement, and logical. I've seen posts against implementation from only two

I'd like to add my vote for this, it seems totally illogical that a second click on the icon would not minimise the application. Won't Fix simply is not good enough. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpa

[Bug 733349] Re: Minimize Application's Windows upon clicking its Launcher Icon

This is pretty ridiculous. I am trying out unity again in 13.04 from kde and I don't quite know what to say. I am considering switching back because of this. I can see having some debate if there are multiple windows open, but there should be none when there is only a single window. The button on t

[Bug 733349] Re: Minimize Application's Windows upon clicking its Launcher Icon

If all nay-sayers would just focus on requirement #3 in comment number #335 (not #336). I believe this is the essence. Currently, when that particular requirement is true, clicking the launcher does NOTHING! So why not toggle-minimized here? After all, clicking does absolutely nothing. AND it does

[Bug 733349] Re: Minimize Application's Windows upon clicking its Launcher Icon

Its stuff like this that makes me want to go back to Mint or use Cinnamon instead of Unity. I can't see the justification for not making the change. I thought I would give 13.04 a shot ... but Ubuntu seems confused about what they are doing. ( desktop not a priority any more ) -- You received

[Bug 733349] Re: Minimize Application's Windows upon clicking its Launcher Icon

I think because there's this "expose"-like feature that happens when you click on the icon when there's two of the same Window (2 open Firefox windows for example), this won't happen anytime soon, if at all. If there's only one Window, however, then I wouldn't mind the minimize feature. -- You re

3) Clicking a launcher whose application is: a) "already launched" b) "already has focus" SHOULD MINIMIZE THAT APPLICATION'S WINDOW. I NEED THIS!!! -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/

My suggestion was just marked as a duplicate: https://bugs.launchpad.net/unity/+bug/1170466 You know, the development team really ought to at least consider minimizing when these three conditions are the case: 1) The launcher's application is already open 2) The launcher's application is already
