CONTROL THE VIEWS OF RUNNING PROGRAMS
by John Anthony
Every running program is contained in a window on the desktop. In the upper right corner of each window there are usually three small control boxes that are used to control how the window is displayed.
MINIMIZE A WINDOW
The left most control box has a minus [-] sign in it.
If you put the cursor over this box and click your mouse the application is 'minimized' and placed on the task bar as a small block.
To expand the minimized program, click it and it expands to become the active program on your desktop.
MAXIMIZE A WINDOW
The control box in the center has a square [ ] in it.
If you put the cursor over this box and click your mouse the application is 'maximized' and takes up the entire screen.
When maximized this control box changes to show one square in front of another square. Clicking this control box again restores the window back to about half size.
CLOSE AN ACTIVE WINDOW
The control box on the right has an [x] in it. If you
put the cursor over this box and click your mouse the application terminates.
To open it again you must click the program icon for it. |
