Does anyone else double click the icon on the left side of the title bar to close a window?

[Shawn]

I don't do it often but sometimes I'll catch myself closing a window that way. Something still left over from my Win 3.1 days I guess. Does anyone else do this?

 

[aplefka]

50% of the time.

 

[amdskip]

Always close with the x.

 

[Zim Hosein]

Alt-F4 n00b.

🙂

Not usually in Windows. In CDE I do it all the time though.

I will alt F4 in Windows constantly though.

 

[neonerd]

i use either way...i also have habbits left over from win 3.11 😉

 

[crab]

99%

 

[Bootprint]

I just keep opening more windows until it BSODs, and get to start with that freshly started OS smell.

 

[Tremulant]

sometimes I alt-f4, sometimes I click the x, sometimes I double-click the icon. In firefox I just make an L with my mouse.

 

[Twista]

Always close with the X.

 

[helpme]

Apple+W

I some times click on the left side since the Mac OS X has the widget on the left side.

 

[JustAnAverageGuy]

Always used the X. Didn't know you could double click though.

 

[schdaddy]

Alt+F4 if I'm near the keyboard
Double click icon if I'm near it
Click on X if I'm near it
Right click on the taskbar & Close if I'm near it

Basically whatever is the easiest 🙂

 

[flexy]

whow...even after years w/ comps its nice to always learn something new 🙂

 

[Unheard]

I find it easier to make the swooping gesture to the top left corner, than to the top right corner, so 99% of the time I dblclick.

 

[clamum]

Usually I click the X, sometimes double-click the icon. ALT-F4 takes too long to press.

Bad poll: no "other" option.
I middle-click the title bar 🙂 (BBLeanSkin > poll).

 

[Toki]

wow, i learn something everyday
the sad thing is i actually did it to verify. i was amazed at the fact that it was there and i had never come across it.

 

[dighn]

didn't know
i tend to right click the taskbar and close though cuz it's a bigger target therefore requires less precision

but now with this new mouse I just use this button dedicated to closing 😀

[Mik3y]

no, it reminds me of using a mac! 😛

 

[ed21x]

:Q

 

[mobobuff]

No. I go to File > Close.




Just kidding, but my brother closes all windows that way. It gets on the nerves after a while :Q

Since when has double clicking the icon been around?
