You can find and install Dconf Editor in the Ubuntu Software Center. So be careful while using this tool keeping in mind that it works on single click and changes are applied immediately. I avoid recommending it because one wrong click here and there may screw up your desktop settings. It is a powerful tool that allows you to change many hidden aspects of your Linux desktop. You can do the same steps mentioned above using a GUI tool called Dconf Editor. Its Super Easy simply click on Copy button to copy the command and paste into your command line terminal using built-in APT package manager. If you do not like ‘click to minimize’ behavior, you can set it back to default using the command below: gsettings reset .dash-to-dock click-action Enable click to minimize on Ubuntu using GUI tool You can test the minimize on click behavior immediately after it. No need of restarting your system or any thing of that sort. Dconf Editor do not only call this database. This database is empty by default so, you only see via dconf the settings that have already been edited, and you can only read the name of the key, and its value. gsettings set .dash-to-dock click-action 'minimize' The dconf command gives you access to the dconf key-value database. All you need is to copy paste the command below in the terminal. sddm sddm-theme-maldives dconf-editor wicd gedit nitrogen compton tint2. Open a terminal using Ctrl+Alt+T shortcut or searching for it in the menu. Open a terminal by hitting ALT F2 and type in xfce4-terminal. I recommend this way to ‘minimize on click’ even if you are not comfortable with the command line. This method is for Ubuntu 18.04, 20.04 and newer version users with GNOME desktop environment.
