Open new window when clicking Unity launcher icons? - Ask Ubuntu


background

i realize middle-clicking on launcher icon opens new instance, mouse doesn't have middle-click option (clicking scrollwheel works this, it's cumbersome). workflow tends involve numerous windows programs such terminal , chrome. currently, terminal opens new windows when click launcher icon, chrome , nautilus not.

research

i found out how list keys associated org.compiz.unityshell way of article on omg! ubuntu!, , got list:

user@comp> gsettings list-keys org.compiz.unityshell override-decoration-theme disable-show-desktop launcher-switcher-forward reveal-trigger reveal-pressure alt-tab-prev-window launcher-capture-mouse stop-velocity panel-opacity-maximized-toggle automaximize-value spread-app-windows panel-first-menu decay-rate alt-tab-bias-viewport background-color lock-screen backlight-mode dash-blur-experimental edge-responsiveness show-minimized-windows inactive-shadow-color low-graphics-mode spread-app-windows-anywhere alt-tab-timeout switch-strictly-between-applications autohide-animation shadow-y-offset inactive-shadow-radius menus-discovery-duration launcher-switcher-prev menus-fadeout shadow-x-offset icon-size overcome-pressure dash-tap-duration execute-command alt-tab-forward show-launcher edge-passed-disabled-ms launcher-opacity show-desktop-key show-hud scroll-inactive-icons disable-mouse alt-tab-next-window num-launchers menus-fadein panel-opacity launcher-hide-mode active-shadow-radius menus-discovery-fadeout keyboard-focus alt-tab-prev urgent-animation active-shadow-color launcher-minimize-window alt-tab-prev-all launch-animation menus-discovery-fadein show-menu-bar alt-tab-forward-all shortcut-overlay user@comp>

however, none of these promising. have found other questions wanting do opposite of want do, couldn't determine questions how reverse it.

question

is there way make unity launcher open new windows programs when left-clicking , not when middle-clicking?

this want:

the easiest thing is:

  1. remove existing chrome icon unity launcher
  2. open unity dash , make non-maximized

enter image description here

  1. type "chrome"
  2. drag chrome icon desktop
  3. right-click on chrome icon on desktop , choose "properties"
  4. modify "command" insert & @ end , close window
  5. drag icon desktop unity launcher

you can use folder instead of desktop if have problem it.
