Applications that are currently running will have one or more triangles on the left side of the icon indicating the number of application windows open for this application. Running applications also have a back-lit icon on the Launcher. \marginnote{Some also refer to an application in the foreground as being \emph{in focus}.}\marginscreenshot{02-Launcher-triangles.png}{ss:Launcher-items}{The triangles on each side of the Firefox icon indicate Firefox is in the foreground and only one window is associated with Firefox at this time.} The application in the foreground (i.e. the application that is on top of all other open application windows) is indicated by a single white triangle on the right side of its icon.

\marginnote{For more information about the Dash and its lenses, see: \url{https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Unity}.} The Dash helps you quickly finding applications and files on your computer. If you've used Windows in the past, you'll find the Dash to be similar to the Windows Start menu or the Start Screen in Windows 8. Mac users will find the Dash similar to Launchpad in the dock. If you've used a previous version of Ubuntu or another \acronym{GNOME} Linux distribution, the Dash serves as a replacement for the various \acronym{GNOME}~2 menus. The Dash allows you to search for information, both locally (installed applications, recent files, bookmarks, etc.) as well as remotely (Twitter, Google Docs, etc.).

When opening a program in Ubuntu (such as a web browser or a text editor\dash see \chaplink{ch:default-applications} for more information on using applications)\dash a \emph{window} will appear on your desktop. The windows seen in Ubuntu are very similar to those in Microsoft Windows or Mac \acronym{OS~X}. Simply stated, a window is the box that appears on your screen when you start a program. In Ubuntu, the top part of a window (the \emph{title bar}) will have the name of the application to the left (most often, the title will be the same as the application's name). A window will also have three buttons in the top-left corner. From left to right, these buttons represent \emph{close} window, \emph{minimize} window, and \emph{maximize} window. Other window management options are available by right-clicking anywhere on the title bar.

To close a window, click on the close button (\closebutton{}) in the upper-left corner of the window\dash the first button on the left-hand side. The button immediately to the right of the close button is the \gls{minimize} button (\minimizebutton{}) which removes the window from the visible screen and places it in the Launcher. \marginscreenshot{02-window-buttons.png}{ss:window-buttons}{This is the top bar of a window, named \emph{title bar}. The close, minimize, and maximize buttons are in the top-left corner of the window.} This button doesn't close the application; it just hides the application from view. When an application is minimized to the Launcher, the left-side of the icon in the Launcher will display a triangle showing you the application is still running. Clicking the icon of the minimized application will restore the window to its original position. Finally, the right-most button is the \gls{maximize} button (\maximizebutton{}) which causes the application to completely fill the unused displayable space on the desktop. Clicking the \gls{maximize} button again will return the window to its original size. If a window is maximized, its top-left buttons and menu are automatically hidden from view. To make them appear, just move your mouse to the \emph{menu bar}.

321.

To move a window around the workspace, place the mouse pointer over the window's title bar, then click and drag the window while continuing to hold down the left mouse button. You can also move a window by holding the \keystroke{Alt} key and then clicking and holding the left mouse button while pointing at the title bar of the window and dragging the window to a new location. To resize a window, place the pointer on an edge or corner of the window so that the pointer turns into a larger, two-sided arrow (known as the resize icon). You can then click and drag to resize the window.

324.

In Ubuntu, there are many ways to switch between open windows.

If the window is visible on your screen, click any portion of it to raise it above all other windows.
