Hi guys
While running Kstars-bleeding with Ekos each time I want to minimise a window such as the Indi control panel or a fitsviewer window they just minimise to the Kstars button in the bottom panel and if I want to access them I have to minimise Kstars and then maximise it and all the windows are back again is there a setting I`ve missed somewhere running Netrunner 15?.. Watching Jasem`s demo on Youtube all the minimsed windows seem to have their own button in the bottom panel
cheers

One more thing - why sometimes tabs of the INDI Control Panel are changing their order?



P.S. In order not to open a separate topic - can be Ports for Celestron NexStar moved to Main Control tab? :)

Yes I wondered that too !. Regarding the windows minimising, I`m not sure if its a Linux or Kstars or Indi or even a KDE thing that needs some setting adjusted??. I`ve searched all over the place but can`t find an answer. It must be doable as Jasem does it on the Youtube tut!

After a bit of digging it seems that Plasma 5 now uses something called Modal windows which prevents child windows from an application to be shown on their own under the Task Manager, something which was available under Plasma 4 apparantly so it looks like separate windows can`t have their own minimise button! Doh :ohmy: .

That's not true, I am running KStars under Plasma 5 and both Ekos and Device Manager have their own task bar icons.

Ah! right thanks for that Jasem but when I minimise Ekos or any other Kstars window eg fitsviewer it just minimises to the Kstars button??. Any tips how to enable this again please ?.
