SOLVED : eally easy, .. just can't figure it out?

Post by fluffypants »

Couple nights ago I was messing around and RC a random minimized window on my toolbar. Now nothing minimizes to my toolbar.

How can I solve this?

Your post title doesn't give any information, and your problem sounds like something very unusual.

When you say nothing minimizes to the toolbar anymore... Does it do anything when you hit the minimize button?

I think the problem lies in uncomplete information you provided

What does that mean? Chances are you did something to cause a window to be displayed or not. Without knowing what you did nobody can a solution to your problem.

It helps nobody when you QUOTE what decide is relivent. RC means Right Click .. I'm not sure where you got the IRC from.

I explained quite clearly what I did to leave me in this situation. I right clicked a window that was already minimized selected something and now nothin minimizes to the toolbar.

I can create a video and put it on youtube if your still having problems understanding.

No errors, .. nothing is flashing or having issues opening/closing. It kinda just falls into the background I can alt + tab and the window is show and I can pull it up.

Also can't remember when I upgraded to 14 .. but thats not my issue
