One of the top things to do after installed Ubuntu 19.04 is enable the 'minimize on click' feature. with the feature enabled, you can click the application icon on the left dock launcher to minimize the opened app window.


You can do it via Single Command :


Simply open terminal either from applcation menu or by pressing Ctrl+Alt+T on keyboard.



gsettings set org.gnome.shell.extensions.dash-to-dock click-action minimize
To enable ‘Click to Minimize’ via a graphical tool :

1. First open Ubuntu Software, search for and install dconf editor.
2. Launch dconf editor and navigate to “org / gnome / shell / extensions / dash-to-dock”, then find out the key “click-action”.
3. Click on the key to go to its configuration page, then do:

  • turn off “Use default value”.
  • set “current value” to ‘minimize’ or ‘minimize or previews’ or ‘minimize or overview’
