    Yes, agreed. I have been using Elementary for years and the new 5.1 someone removed the option of minimize on Hot Corners.
    To me this is a very backward step as in earlier versions, a quick flick of my mouse cursor (bottom left) made the current window minimize. I have no idea why this was removed.
    Winkey + H works but is slow. A method may work (I havent tried yet) Run dconf editor and navigate to org > pantheon > desktop > gala > behavior Select the corner you want and click on it Click on custom behavior and select 'minimize-current'.

    I didn't realized I could minimize windows at all - discovered I could click again on the program icon on the dock, and it would minimize! But when I start getting multiple windows open in the same program, I'd like to be able to minimize certain windows, instead of all of them. Clicking on the dock icon only minimizes ALL the windows. The Windows-H shortcut works, but there's no way to retrieve ONE of the windows from below. It shouldn't be such a hidden operation.
