Created attachment 118528 [details] Mockup of proposed changes When right-clicking on an window in the task manager widget, the context menu contains the entries "Minimize" and "Maximize". However one can already toggle between minimize and maximize by just left-clicking on the window icon. Furthermore shortcuts are also available for these action. Hence I don't think the prominent placement of these action is justified. For the rare cases these actions is needed I think it is sufficient to place it in the submenu under "More Actions". At the same time I also suggest to rename "More Actions" to "Window Actions", so it is more clear to what this submenu refers. Attached is a mockup of the changes, which also includes my other proposals in an effort to focus this context menu on the task the user actually wants to perform.
Seems reasonable. I'll see what I can do.
Git commit 1daf42d9d734f969c31016825d8a7a93a6f95fbb by Nate Graham. Committed on 13/03/2019 at 20:54. Pushed by ngraham into branch 'master'. [Task Manager] Reorganize and improve presentation of context menu Summary: This patch improves the UX of the Task Manager's context menu by offering more logical separation and grouping of elements, improving strings, and adding or changing icons, as appropriate. The result hopefully feels more harmonious, less confusing, and less intimidating.
