Re: Minimized windows in the activities overview

[Franz Dietrich <enaut w googlemail com>]

Hey,

the concept of minimized windows is not really used in Gnome 3. Since 
there is no task list where the minimized windows could go you can't 
really hide them.

The concept for Gnome is to either have the windows covered by other 
windows or just use multiple workspaces. Simply drag the window to the 
second workspace on the right and it will not be visible in the current 
workspace. If you prefer you can press [ctrl]+[alt]+[down] to change to 
the second workspace [ctrl]+[alt]+[up] to go back to the first. If you 
additionally press [shift] it will take the current window to the target 
workspace. so moving the current window to the second workspace would be 
[ctrl]+[alt]+[shift]+[down] and then switching back to the first with 
[ctrl]+[alt]+[up].

Hope that helps

Franz
