@marcobiscaro2112: I noticed that the Ubuntu Unity plugin rotated is basically a fork, right? Well, I agree that's not something that we should strive for, and I was thinking more about the possibility of releasing a Compiz plugin that didn't need forking Unity. Is that possible?
@everyone: Something a little similar to what Marco proposed in #58 could be implemented basically with the current Unity structure at least for some cases. Go to CompizConfig Settings Manager > Window Management > Scale plugin > Shortcuts and tick the "click on the desktop to show desktop" option. Now when the scale plugin gets triggered after clicking on the launcher, another click on the application icon will minimize the windows. However, there are two problems with this: this only happens when we have multiple instances of an application, and it will maximize all windows, not just the ones for that application. Nevertheless, if you're minimizing to see the desktop, this could be useful. If you want to use another application instead of seeing the desktop it would require another click on the launcher, but there's a bug related to this: clicking on the application icon on the launcher will maximize all windows instead of the application you want. This is bug #871801 and it already has a fix pending. It's far from ideal, but it's an option that already exists. Maybe it would be easier if changes could be made to the Scale plugin instead of Unity, making it minimize only the scaled windows? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/733349 Title: Minimize Application's Windows upon clicking its Launcher Icon To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ayatana-design/+bug/733349/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
