<title>Windows</title>


<p>Windows are where your running applications are displayed.</p>
 <p>In the <gui>Activities</gui> overview, the dock is where your favorite applications and your running applications are shown. The glow behind an application name indicates if the application is running. 
 </p>
 <p>
  Clicking on the application icon will launch it if it is not running, and will open the last used window of that application if it is already running. 
</p>

<p>
Right clicking on the application icon for a running application will bring all windows for that application forward. A menu with the titles of your windows will be displayed.  You can select a window from this menu. It also provides options to open a new window for that application and to remove or add that application to favorites depending on its current status. 
</p>

<p>
   Windows are shown on their corresponding <link xref="shell-windows-workspaces">workspaces</link>.
