2.2.6 Minimizing and maximizing the front panel
Minimize the Front Panel by clicking on the Minimize button at the top right corner of the Front Panel window. The resulting icon will show the name of the current workspace immediately below it. To restore the Front Panel display, double-click on the Front Panel icon. If the icon is hidden behind another window, you can either lower the overlapping windows until you can see the Front Panel icon or keep pressing the Alt-Tab keys until the Front Panel icon is brought to the front of the overlapping windows displayed on your screen.
