With Windows 10 an old and major advantage of the Amiga , multiple screensn has been improved upon.
When minimizing an application under Amiga the icon is always positioned on the Workbench.
In essence the proposition is
- When iconifying an application have the icon on the same screen.
- if possible have them iconified in the amidock bar.
The possibility to have amidock on different screens would be great too. The suggestion to also be able t remove icons from amidock (using arexx) would make this easier i guess.
BTW i read Amidock X ( enhance pack aeon) has advantages over Amidock. Comment on this?
Multiple screens with icons

Its better to say AmigaOS needs a better way of "screen and task switching".
Multiply solutions appeared to address the problem even in AmigaOS 3 era,
in OS4 era there were weird task switchers like http://os4depot.net/index.php?function= ... cher3d.lha
Or simple ones like http://os4depot.net/index.php?function= ... itcher.lha
But none became standard and OS part. Amiga curse!
Iconification is "kind of" nice solution, and yes, please to AmiDock and NOT WB.

http://amigax1000.blogspot.com/2018/09/ ... x1000.html I ve tried 1.3 and its a wast improvement but does not disable old AmiDock
per se and does not work with old OS3 icons. Does not work - disappears. Other then this bug, its much fancier, easier to customize
and supports way advanced dockies if I remember right
You can find some 1.3 info on quite useful wiki pages
