Minimizing Tools in the Desktop Now Supported on Macintosh Platforms
You can now minimize tools in the desktop on Apple Macintosh platforms. It was
introduced for other platforms in a previous version.
Double-Click to Maximize or Restore Minimized Tools in Desktop
After you minimize a tool within the desktop, you can now:
• Restore the tool to its former position by double-clicking the button.
• Drag a button to move its position—drag it to another edge of the desktop or to a new
position within the edge where it's currently located.
• Restore the tool by dragging the button to a location within the desktop, or outside the
desktop to undock the tool.
Similarly, you can double-click a tool's title bar to maximize the tool in the desktop; then
double-click the title bar again to restore it to its former position. (The capability was
introduced in R2007a, MATLAB Version 7.4).
