Vista contraida no me gusta. Reducida? Basica? Plegada? Condensada? Tiene que haber algo por ahi, si yo lo he visto no me acuerdo

Vista contraida (lo siento, ya sé que no te gusta)
Explanation:
Sólo quería comentarte que los glosarios de Microsoft (supongo que ya lo sabrás) traducen "collapsed" como contraida y expanded/expandida. Cierto que no suena muy bien, pero si estás traduciendo software que se va a ejecutar en una plataforma Windows, yo creo que lo más correcto (por coherencia) sería mantener la terminología que impone Billy (Gates).
Un saludo.

disagree  María Krismancich: "vista disminuida" puede dar al lector la idea de "defecto", es incorrecto, o se refiere a otra funcion decir "vista minimizada"?

agree  kirchner: debo decir aunque el tema esté cerrado que esta era la respuesta buena, a mi parecer, todos sabemos que "minimizar" en windows se obtiene clikando sobre el simbolo "-"

minimizada


Explanation:
I think that maybe your option of "vista disminuida" may lead to thinking of "inability". My suggestion would be "vista minimizada", though I am not sure whether that's the meaning you might be looking for in your context.

after your comments, how about \"sin desplegar\" instead of your original suggestion of \"plegada\"?
