You da man willy.
This is exactly what I have been trying to figure out.
Great video and great tip.
Thank you so much. JR
you don’t need to press command after you select the item you want from the app selection
just press alt after selecting and it will unminimize the same way
Great tips. I’m starting out with Mac and this feature is really helpful. Please post more tips! Thank you.
