Showing minimized windows in mission control in LION

Hello All..Just installed LION On my 13' MBP...I have a small problem with the mission control...Previously, i have a hot corner set up which shows all the open windows at one time ( also shows the minimized ones)..but now, i can only see the the ones which are open....for example if i have chrome browser minimized , it is not showing....kind of very annoying....any one please help...Thanks

App Expose is fine if you knew the window you were looking for was minimized, instead of hidden behind another window.
Also you need to be in that app to bring up its minimised windows - which is irritating if you are using more than one app to manipulate files.

  • How to see hidden apps & minimized windows in Mission Control?

    Does anyone know how to configure Mission Control so that I can see hidden apps and minimized windows?
    Thanks in advance for your help.

    YES . you get it.
    Not thing to apologize. you don;t do anything wrong. sorry about my word i'm not good in english.
    it call Minimize windows
    by your answer that is ok. The window will go to stay on Dock by click in  >System Preference >Dock > Uncheck Minimize windows into application.
    but someone (me and topick owner Jmayorperes) we check in minimize window to application icon . because i want a static Dock . dont want many icon on Dock when i minimize.
    and old style expose is allow me to see all active window and all minimize windows in same place. by move mouse to hot corner .
    But Lion if you want to see  Minimize window you must >>>  .. hold click to icon and select > show all window .. That's it.   http://postimage.org/image/2wd9ly7no/
    but i think 1-2 second difference not good .
    That why we try to get it back . it just change by apple. maybe it good for people who use touchpad or andything i don't know.
    but for me it difference. and have to change behavior hope it come back in next update
    Thanks you AMMOCAN

  • "Show All Windows" in Mission Control

    Hey everyone!
    In Snow Leopard you had this amazing feature that when you push and hold the mouse button on an active application in the dock, all the windows of that application would pop up beside each other.
    Doing so in Lion just generates a sub-menu, where you have to click the "Show All Windows" yourself.
    Is it possible to get the Snow Leopard function in Lion?
    Thanks!

    I dont use the Trackpad, just a mouse. Moments after I typed it, the answer was suggested already:
    CTRL+Mission Control button does exactly what I want.
    Is it possible to reconfigure this shortcut to the Snow Leopard way? (Pushing and holding the mouse button on an app in the dock for the same results)
    Thanks,

  • Missing minimized windows in Mission Control

    Mission Control - in general - is something I like most about the new Mac OS Lion. But there is one thing missing:
    since Mission Control attempts to give a total view of all desktops and all windows inside them or generally an overview of everything currently running, the minimized windows should definitely be part of Mission Control.
    Since the minimized windows do not belong to a cerstain desktop, there should be a nice horizontal line at the bottom of the Mission Control overview and all the minimized windows under this line.
    What do you think of it?

  • IMac does not show open windows in Mission Control

    Ever since I installed Mountain Lion on my 2008 iMac 24", I've had a problem in Mission Control where the Desktop that the OS boots into will not show a preview of any windows open in that desktop. I have a new 2012 MacBook Air that does not have this problem. I thought the 10.8.1 update might fix it but no luck. Originally, I upgraded from Snow Leopard but eventually did a clean install and manually restored documents so that all the preferences/system files would be fresh, but still no luck.
    A screenshot of what I mean is attached. I have FF open in desktop 1, but it does not show at the top, whereas all other desktops show window previews.
    Has anyone else had this problem and have you managed to fix it?

  • How can app show up in all mission control windows

    Is there a way  to have apps show up on all mission control windows and not just the window it was launched in?   And how do  you assign a window to a specific screen?

    Right click the icon in the the dock, in the menu that pops up go to options and you can assign windows to all spaces or just the current one.

  • App Expose and Mission Control in Lion

    Several people have posted, confused by how App Expose works. I hope to clarify the function of App Expose and Mission Control.
    APP EXPOSE
    App Expose in Lion works differently than Expose did in Snow Leopard.
    App Expose is intended to show all open windows from the same application.
    Expose used to show all open windows from all applications.
    To test App Expose in Lion, open two (or more) separate windows in Safari (or any application). Three-finger swipe down on your trackpad and App Expose will reveal your two (or more) open Safari windows.
    MISSION CONRTOL
    In Lion, the most similar thing to the old Expose (from Snow Leopard) is the new Mission Control.
    To test Mission Control, open several applications. Three-finger swipe up on your trackpad and Mission Control will reveal all open applications, dashboard and spaces. If you have multiple windows open in a single applications (like three separate Safari windows, for example), MIssion Control groups those same-app windows together.

    Mission Control ended years of divergent attempts to manage windows and widgets, consolidating Expose, Dashboard, and Spaces into a new Mac interface.

  • Can't See All Windows in Mission Control

    My favorite feature on the mac has always been the ability to see all open windows with a simple click (F3 on my keyboard). I often have multiple word documents and multiple pdf files open, as well as two or three different browser windows, several image files, and who knows what else. It is very common for me to have 10-20 open windows and it was always a huge help to be able to see them all at once, with filenames that would pop up when hovering with the mouse. This feature made it incredibly easy to move from file to file and truly see everything on the desktop at once.
    As far as I can tell, this is no longer possible with Lion and Mission Control. Now if I have multiple windows open in a single application and enter Mission Control I see them tiled over one another, without filenames displayed for any. Sure, I can see all the applications I have open, but what good is that if I can't see which files I have? It's making it very difficult to work effectively-- basically I have to minimize each window one by one until I find the one I want.
    Am I missing something? Can anyone using Lion tell me how to see a graphic representation of ALL open windows, with filenames? Like I could in the good old days? Or is there something like a "see all open files" ability in Finder?
    Thanks!

    I know what you mean - it was nice to see all the windows.
    Tell Apple here:  Apple - Mac OS X - Feedback
    To mitigate this problem there is "App expose" which lets you see all open windows for any given application.
    And, in Mission Control you can spread a given application's windows a little further apart or you can preview any given window within Mission Control.
    How you do all that stuff depends on how you've configured mouse, keyboard and trackpad. For example, on my trackpad, to spread MC windows a bit I slide two fingers up (with cursor over the group of windows). To preview a given window, I put the cursor over the window and hit the space bar. For me, App expose can be activated by 4 fingers down for the frontmost app, and four fingers down with the cursor over the chosen app in the dock.

  • Indesign cs6 menu and tool bar disappear between windows using mission control in mountain lion

    heres 2  screen grabs before and after. while navigating between 'spaces' using mission control in mountain lion. issue -  the menu and tools bars disappear - not all of them just parts of them. to get back i hit 'tab' button twice which hides and shows tools. very annoying - does anyone know of a fix or is this another bug which i have to live with. im using a macpro june 2012/running 10.8.4 and 2 screens - left for artboard - right for all tool windows.

    thanks steve - yes that works as does using the tab key - all well....until i move to another 'space' and then come back again.
    for example: my setup is like this - no2 space has indesign project. no3 space has photoshop. so im working on a page within indesign and i need to edit an image- i double click the pic and it opens in photoshop on the other 'space' save the file and go back to indesign to update pic and find menu/tools all over the place - so hit tab twice back to normal -  until i 'move' out of that space into another - photoshop/ mail/ whatever - as i toggle between spaces the indesign menu will always be 'corrupt' for a better word. hope that makes sense.

  • Minimized apps in Mission Control

    I've noticed a difference in Mission Control over Exposé, and I wanted to check it isn't just me.
    In SL, windows from any apps that are minimized to the Dock show up as small thumbs at the bottom of the screen.
    In Lion, this doesn't seem to be happening. In the example below, there is an iCal window minimized on the desktop; you can just see it above the Trash.
    Has anyone else seen this, or is it just another way that MC is different? (The white window visible in the Desktop thumb at the top is Grab's timer screen)

    Yes, I completely agree. I can't see how to see minimized programs in MC either and it is extremely annoying.
    Another annoyance is programs appear in different places from one use of Mission Control to another a few seconds later.

  • Mission Control causing Lion to crash.

    Hi all,
    hopefully someone can help me out.
    I installed Lion soon after it was released on my work computer (I know, I know) anyway, every time I launched Mission Control it would flash a grey screen and log out. I even lost some work - really annoying.
    So I backed everything up and did a clean install, thinking that the iteration of Lion I had installed over top of Snow Leopard was maybe corrupt somehow. I began to reinstall my most critical apps and a few system tweaks that I use, and I've noticed that using Mission Control now is still causing all kinds of problems. I guess I can just deactivate it, but it's hella annoying and I'd really like to get to the bottom of the cause. I've done some troubleshooting and removed some things but have not been able to isolate the problem. I've looked through the console, but not being super fluent in consolese have not located the clear culprit.
    I have a feeling it's a graphics card issue, but I'm not sure, and if it is, I have no clue how to fix it.
    Below is the console log from the time Mission Control is activated to the crash. Hopefully someone out there can decipher this and give me some insight as to what is the issue. Thanks!!!

    Ok, so after looking in the kernel.log section of the console, and seeing this:
    Aug  2 23:02:11 Jamess-iMac kernel[0]: The graphics driver has detected a corruption in its command stream.
    Aug  2 23:02:33 Jamess-iMac kernel[0]: IOSurface: buffer allocation size is zero
    Aug  2 23:07:13 Jamess-iMac kernel[0]: NVDA(OpenGL): Channel exception! exception type = 0xd = GR: SW Notify Error
    it looks like the GPU is kinda screwed up. I found this thread: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/2268642?start=0&tstart=0 that discusses replacing the graphics card. Looks like this http://www.macpalace.com/mac-parts/p/661-4180-card-video-nvidia-geforce-7600-gt- 256-mb-vram/ is about the best price ($229)I can find with a quick search, so it's either:
    a) leave it as is and not use mission control and wait till I can afford to upgrade to a new rig
    b) spend $250 or so with shipping and do the replacement myself, and hope that fixes the problem
    Hmmm.

  • Split Window using Mission Control

    Lion 10.7.2
    13" MacBook Pro
    I would like to be able to work with two programs, each occupying half of the screen, TurboTax and a word processor or spread sheet. I will not be able to copy and paste.
    Is there a way to do this using Mission Control, splitting the screen into two windows? If not, is there a way to accomplish this?
    Thanks in advance,
    Alan

  • Command-tab does not show minimized window

    Hello, use command-tab to cycle through all the open apps, and I stop on one that I want to display. However, if that app is minimized, nothing happens. Not too convenient. Is there a way to automatically show the minimized window when I select it w/ command-tab? (this is how windows works and I prefer it this way)
    thanks

    Greetings from a System Leopard user.
    I've not yet upgraded to System Snow Leopard, but I'm running across unbelievable messages and applications that are required to allow CMD+Tab to work right under System Snow Leoperd. Is this a big joke or what?
    There are at least 5 $hareware/commercial (but not public domain) apps that are required to restore the use of CMD+Tab for System Snow Leopard users.
    Using System Leopard, CMD+Tab works perfectly. But reading various messages threads it looks like Apple programmers have disallowed CMD+Tab to work properly in System Snow Leopard. Why?
    Any Apple Employee, anywhere:
    If this is all true, that CMD+Tab has turned into a convoluted mess, then why have Apple engineers disallowed normal use of CMD+Tab?
    If this is true about CMD+Tab, is it because Microsoft Vista programmers sneaked onto the property and diddled with the System Snow Leopard source code?
    Apple employee, the most acceptable reason for not upgrading to System Snow Leopard is software application compatibility, but if global functions are intentionally convoluted in System Snow Leopard, please explain the Apple decision process vis a vis CMD+Tab, and the reasons this condition has been allowed to fester.
    Thanks much!
