Pressing the Meta-key (aka "Super"-key or "Windows"-key) is a more convenient way, also just to get to the Activities overview screen. Much better than moving the mouse long ways over the entire screen. (Guess what I thought when during F20 development for a short time I had to open the screenlock with a mouse gesture because no key would do it.) Alt+TAB for switching through active windows as well as Ctrl+Alt+Up/Down for switching virtual desktops still works, too. > * A new minituarized window appears somewhere else on the screen. Where should it appear instead? If there's enough free space on the screen (not the Activities overview), at least the window doesn't overlap with other windows. And it becomes the active window, too, when returning to the screen (e.g. by pressing Meta-key). > * Click it to move the input focus there. A matter of taste. I'm still a fan of "focus follows mouse", so I don't need to click windows to activate them. > Versus: > > * Move the pointer to an icon on the desktop. Double click on it. Works only if no windows hide those icons. Or else you need to unhide the desktop first. > WTF is wrong with Gnome? Don't answer that. It's a rhetorical question. FWIW, I'm not here to defend it. I just use it (or more precisely, the programs on the screen), and I'm glad the default GNOME Shell screen is not overloaded with lots of applets and distraction anymore. -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
