Hi Guys, OK I think I get it.
Isn't the Icon in the journal always the same for any given activity? That is, any time I use and/or keep a write document it shows the same write icon. What is different about the journal icon from one write instance to another? I think we need that icon but perhaps we can just use the same one everytime... I don't want to give up the icon completely and I doubt many kids use alt-tab but we could ask on the sur list. I bet they do switch between open activities via home view and/or frame. BTW will this improve frame open and close rates? Sorry I would check this myself but I'm not in front of an XO right now (need to bring some home again ASAP).
