Close 'Show Applications' screen via click












0















After clicking Show Applications in the dock, on the occasion I don't click an app, I'd like to click anywhere in the window to close it. Currently I have to mouse down and click the Show Application icon again for the window to close. Is this possible?

  • Dash-to-Dock v64

    You can press Escape Key too, it's the easiest means to close Show Applications.

  • Or better press <Super> or click 'Activities' at the top-left corner to close the Show Applications screen. Also just to confirm, did you manually install the Dash-to-Dock extension. The one that is shipped with Ubuntu 18.04 by default is not exactly Dash-to-Dock, but a fork of it.
