When working with multiple programs it is often the case where a set of windows needs to be minimized or maximized temporarily while working with a different program. This can be a little awkward with CINELERRA-GG because there are 4 distinct windows that are treated individually. To improve the workflow so that the 4 are minimized or maximized together as a group, you can use a routine called xdotool. This will help to automatically focus all 4 of the windows as one window while still letting the user reposition the 4 screens. The "focusing windows as a group" option makes it so that you can quickly move back and forth between this program and other programs. Here is how to do this.
