** Description changed: - What I do miss in Natty (Alpha 3 + daily builds) is the possibility to click on the app. icon on the Unity launcher bar to minimize all windows of that application, not only to launch/restore it. + What I do miss in Unity is the possibility to click on the app. icon on the Unity launcher bar to minimize all windows of that application, not only to launch/restore it. mlaverdiere's futher addition: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ayatana-design/+bug/733349/comments/2 My suggestion would be to modify the interaction-design/process like this (*=my modification proposal/2 cents!): 1) start it, if it hasn't been started yet; *2) restore it, if it is minimized; *3) focus the app, if it's started, not minimized and has not the focus yet; 4) spread windows (of app), if app is focused and has multiple windows open; *5) minimize it if it is in spread-mode (see 4). + + Note that this bug has over 300 comments and several working but + rejected patches. This means that this feature probably will never land + in official Unity! So if you want it, you have to use a patched version + of Unity. + + There is a working patch for 13.04 ( from comment #322, + https://bugs.launchpad.net/ayatana- + design/+bug/733349/+attachment/3573380/+files/minimize.patch ).
