In 16.04 there was a button on the dock you could click that would minimize all open applications. Is there a similar button in 18.04?

It looked like this:

There are threads explaining relatively complex ways to get this looking like it did in Unity, but what I did was go to the Ubuntu Software Center (app store) and just type in "Show Desktop Button" there is a little add on you can install which puts a little house icon on your top panel that you can click on to do exactly what you want :)

    Not "exactly what you want", that extension adds the icon to the top bar, OP wants it in the dock. – pomsky Sep 09 '18 at 15:09
  • Oh that's true! It is prettier on the doc, aesthetically... – Rabbit Sep 09 '18 at 15:10
  • This fix doesn't see to work in 20.04, head for the Gabriel Staples Option 1 solution in the duplicate linked at the top of the page – Rabbit May 24 '20 at 15:37
