All applications are open in this case. MacOS just doesn't display anything in certain quite common cases, such as one of its windows being hidden or minimized. There is a mechanism to display these windows (the obscure, well-kept secret does work) but Apple chose not to apply it.
- wrs 3y agoAaaah, minimized windows, a feature I only use by accident. I always “disable” the cmd-M shortcut. (“Disable” meaning set it to cmd-opt-shift-ctl-M for all apps.) But still, switching to the app does show all the non-minimized windows. And minimizing a window is explicitly asking for it to be hidden. So it would be wrong to show it every time you switch back to the application.
