Ticket #14760, comment 7
initial v1 17 17 > If there's only the Desktop under Tracker windows, "Hide all" should be greyed out. "Close all" could quit, i.e. restart, the Tracker. 18 18 19 We have to first solve the problem of how to Show the Desktop. In (default) special mode you can only have 1 Desktop window open at any time, and that means the magic Desktop window, showing the contents of the Desktop in a regular window is not allowed. In Browser mode you can additionally open one or more regular windows pointing to Desktop folder. When you uncompress a file to the Desktop using Expander it is suppose to "open" the window after it's done or when you download a file to the Desktop using Web+ you can click "Open" button in the Downloads window to open the folder containing the file. In both these cases right now in spacial mode nothing happens because the Desktop folder (i.e. the Desktop) is already open. In Browser mode we open a new Desktop window and show the files. What should happen perhaps is that when you "open" the Desktop folder in Special mode we do a "Show the Desktop" and hide all open windows. This should also happen in Expander and Webpositive. Once this is complete, we can add the magic Desktop window to the Tracker window list (always) and clicking the menu item would toggle Show the Desktop.19 We have to first solve the problem of how to Show the Desktop.
