With many buttons, when I open the IDE (only with Form1) already appear 5 buttons, and to each new Form, the Lazarus creates another button. :(

Another problem is that when I minimize one window, the others windows of the IDE don't follow along to restore, and I have to click in all buttons in taskbar to restore the windows, one for one.

What has helped me is a patch[?] of Fl?vio Etrusco, but I know it has to improve, and increase the productivity of Lazarus on Linux.

under KDE, in a Fedora 7 machine, I get only one button for Lazarus.

Then, if I click on that button, nothing happens, but a popup shows, with the options to minimize (if they are visible) or maximize-restore (if they are minimized) every window.

Maybe it's a behavior of Gnome's window-manager.

Cheers, A.

Guess you have "group buttons" enabled and already too many buttons in the taskbar. Otherwise it shows a button for each window, last tested on Kubuntu 9.04.

I have a patch to fix the taskbar part of it (it's in mantis). Still needs a patch to add an option to control it in the IDE ;-) But there's the problem of Application.Active/Deactivate not working correctly, which keeps window selection (bring other windows to front on window selection) from working, but using DelayedDeactivate (using AsyncQueueCall) sort of works.

Do not know if it's Gnome. But other programs work with only one button, and Gnome (GTK2), please see:

My desire is to see your patch native in future versions. Therefore I started the campaign with that vote to Linux users (Gnome or not).

Thanks for your patch, greatly increased my productivity. ;)
