Customize Ubuntu 19.04. How to enable “minimize on click” on Ubuntu 19.04 Desktop. Enable minimise function on Unity Ubuntu 19.04, via terminal commands or Ubuntu unity tweak tool.
By default, the minimise function isn’t enabled in Ubuntu 19.04 Unity Desktop. So you cannot click on an app launcher icon to open an app and again click on it to minimise the app.
Luckily you can enable minimise on click on Ubuntu 19.04 Desktop. Here’s how to do this:
Via Tweak Tool
- Open Unity Tweak Tool.
- Click on Launcher tab under Unity.
- Click and enable Minimise. Select the option “Minimize single window applications on click” under Behaviour tab.
Via Terminal Commands
You can also enable minimise on click using terminal commands. Run the following commands to enable it:
gsettings set org.gnome.shell.extensions.dash-to-dock click-action 'minimize'
Or
gsettings set org.compiz.unityshell:/org/compiz/profiles/unity/plugins/unityshell/ launcher-minimize-window true
Once done, you will be able to easily minimise the app using mouse click.
