opening all windows from minimise in Lion, instead of 1

Hello, I have multiple windows open in Textedit and Chrome, in Lion. I minimise them. Then when I click on the 'textedit' or 'chrome' icon in the dock at the bottom, instead of all of them opening like they used to, only one does. To see the other windows I either right click on the icon, and it gives me a list, or I click on 'show all windows' but that only lets me select one.

Is there any way, of opening/displaying all the minimised windows at once, by clicking on the dock icon below?

Mac OS X (10.7.2)

what you want to do instead is Hide the app.

try this, right click chrome and hit, hid. this will be the same as if you minimized, and will unhide ALL the windows when you choose to.

This works and is better then minimizing all the windows that are open.
