The 'Taskbar' (carrying a name over from Windows) is a very customizable thing. It comprises one or more panels and the contents of those panels are all optional. Even the buttons for active applications are an option. Right click on the 'Taskbar' or panel to get a Selection menu with 'Add to Panel' as the top item. Under that should be 'Properties' and 'Delete this Panel'. Select the 'Add to Panel' option and you'll get another dialog box titled 'Add to Panel' with sections for 'Accessories', 'Desktop Windows', 'System Hardware' and 'Utilities'. These are all items that can be added to the panel in the 'Taskbar'. Under 'Desktop Windows' is a 'Window List' item. Select that and click '+Add' to put that item on the panel. Adding that will show a button for each windowed application running on the desktop. There are so many items there I wonder that there can be room for more than a few but, of course, you can create multiple 'taskbars' or panels and specialize them for different uses. Some of the items can be positioned manually and then locked in position on the panel. You'll have to explore a bit with some right clicks on the different items in the panel.

Glad to be able to pass on the help I got when I ran into the problem. The thing I still can't figure, though, is how I lost the window list at the time. :-) Take care. sebasmagri wrote: Thanks man... it's fine now... And excuse me...

Looks like you removed the applet, does adding the windows list one work? ** Changed in: gnome-panel (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided = Low Assignee: (unassigned) = Ubuntu Desktop Bugs Status: Unconfirmed = Needs Info -- no button for active applications in taskbar, cannot recover app if minimized https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/103392 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
