Abstract
In one set of embodiments, a computer system can determine that a window for an application running on the computer system has become locked by the application while the window is minimized. In response, the computer system can change a preview image associated with the application to an icon or to a different image. Further, after changing the preview image, the computer system can determine that the window has been restored or maximized. In response, the computer system can cause the preview image to once again reflect a current visual state of the window.
