Description Ilya Konstantinov 2005-09-02 13:20:51 UTC 
When pressing Alt-F9 (or whatever was configured as the Minimize keyboard
shortcut) with a modal dialog being focused, it should be minimized along with
its parent, as if the parent's Minimize button was pressed. This would be very
convenient.

Adding to the modal dialog bugs tracker to help us remember this.
Comment 2 Gustavo Carneiro 2006-08-17 13:41:32 UTC 
I was about to report the same bug.  Not only pressing minimize shortcut doesn't work, Alt-TAB doesn't allow you to cycle to the parent window to apply the same shortcut there.

Modifying summary so that this bug can include bug 484378.

bugzilla.gnome.org is being replaced by gitlab.gnome.org. We are closing all old bug reports in Bugzilla which have not seen updates for many years.

If you can still reproduce this issue in a currently supported version of GNOME (currently that would be 3.38), then please feel free to report it at https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/metacity/-/issues/

Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
