Re: close instances of an application from the overview in unity

 

Great suggestion, I actually already tried to aim at the close-button of some documents in the window switcher. No success :-P

Hi All, Great Job for bringing Unity to desktop, I really enjoy Unity.

I have a suggestion, which will please many users I think.

First Im not an english speaker.

Let face the situation first:

I have many instance of an application runnig, let say Firefox ( main
window and the download window), or more relevant Evince  with many
documents opened.
If I want to close one or two instances (documents) or more, I have to
locate first which is the right instance before closing, with many
instances this way is not quicker and will requiere more mouse clic.

The better way of doing this :

if we clic on the icon of the concerned application, Unity shows us an
overview of all this application's instances. We could use this overview
feature and add a close button on top of each instance so we could
directly close the instances we no more need. this way is better and
user friendly.

what do you think ?
