Minimize/unminize all windows in the active application
I just option+click the minimized window on Exposé or the dock. I thought that was fairly common knowledge... hmmm, I could have submitted a hint. :)
Minimize/unminize all windows in the active application
kills me to be so defensive here -- but please read the post. the point is to minimize repetitive stress: moving back & forth from mouse to keyboard and up and down on the screen. windowshade x did that nicely. click on a title bar and you don't need to move far to get it back, or use anything but the mouse. option-clicking requires keyboard and mouse. if you go to expose, that's keyboard and then keybord mouse. going down to the dock is really the part we're tying to avoid here. (and anyway i don't see that option-clicking the dock unminiaturize windows. hides and unhides, but that's different. as i state above, you can ctrl-click or right click on the dock icon and unminiaturize windows one-by-one. but that's less efficient and again goes back to the main problem: up and down across the screen to get back where you started.) those who don't work in dozens of applications at once may not see the issue here. but those who do will know what i'm talking about.

If you have the windows minimize to the Dock you can option+click to expand them all. If you have them minimize to the icon, as you can with Snow Leopard, you can click and hold on the dock icon where you will see the Exposé minimized windows... and then option+click on any one of those to expand all.

Hello,
Minimize/unminize all windows in the active application
two hands and both on keyboard, or one hand in uncomfortable, contorted positions, with a several-step sequence. nice alternate if both hands already on keyboard, but i prefer attaching this script to a trackball chord -- one hand, no keyboard, two clicks. |
