Let's see if we can reach a consensus. ***Desired default behavior:***
Files icon -> switches to existing window if one is open Trash -> opens new window Removable media (flash drives, cameras, etc.) -> opens new window Hard drive partitions -> opens new tab in existing window ***+ Options in the settings:*** -What does the files icon do: maximize existing window if possible | open a new tab with home folder in existing window | opens a new window with home folder -What does the trash icon do: open trash in new tab of existing window | open trash in new window -What do removable media icons do: open media in new tab of existing window | open media in new window -What do hard drive partition icons do: open partition in new tab of existing window | open partition in new window If anyone disagrees that this would be a true fix for this 'bug', please let us know! -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1170647 Title: After minimizing a Nautilus window of another partition or external media or Trash folder, clicking on the "Files" icon on the Launcher again doesn't restore the minimized window, but opens a new one To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/hundredpapercuts/+bug/1170647/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
