Or you could just hold down the Option key when clicking on an application in the Dock.

Hold down the option and click the mouse? What, and force me to put down my cup of coffee? Nay, sir! I shall never submit to such tyranny!

Being a lefty I can easily use my thumb for modifier keys and still operate the mouse with my fingers (specially the Pro mouse..). Right handed guys can't because of the cursor & numeric keypad is in between, at least they need bigger hands ;)

Option Key only switches to clicked app and hides only the current app. The technique described here switches to clicked app and hides all other apps. I prefer this behavior since I rarely use the Dock to switch apps.

Note, though, that Command-Option-click on a Dock icon does hide all other apps.

Oh, I just accidentally stumbled on to <cmd><option>Click on desktop. This hides all windows as if you hit hide on each window. Very nifty use of suddenly hiding all windows when someone walks by or comes by your desk.

Duh, just saw the other comment earlier. Guess the newb still has a lot to learn :)

Like meanwhile you've probably already read in the other comments: this will keep any Finder window open. (You're actually switching to Finder by clicking on the desktop.) I guess that Exposé's Show Desktop (F11 or Command-F3) is easier used as your boss key then, though that will leave some borders visible. |
