In recent weeks the word productivity It is repeated more and more frequently when we talk about technology and more specifically about Apple. Perhaps the arrival of Siri to the Mac allows us to take an important leap in terms of the management of our day to day.
One of the characteristics that a newcomer to Mac stands out is that things are done in a very simple way, gaining agility and this translates into being more productive. If we go into detail, a semi-expert user handles keyboard shortcuts almost daily to save time in the procedures. Today I present you the keyboard shortcut hide open applications on desktop.
First of all clarify what we mean by hiding. With this function we get an application to disappear from our desktop, not scrolling to the Dock minimized. We will also see how to hide all the applications except the one we are working with at that moment. Perhaps this second is more practical to clear our desk and focus on our work.
So that the application you are using disappears do the following:
- Check the application you have active, as this will be the one you hide. The check is done in the upper left bar, next to the apple symbol.
- Make the following keyboard shortcut: cmd + h
So that all open applications disappear except the ones you are using, Do the following:
- Check the application you have active, as this will be the one that will remain active and visible on the desktop.
- Make the following keyboard shortcut: Alt + Cmd + h
Surely after a while you will need to recover applications to continue working. That they reappear is as simple as: Cmd + Tab, having to press the tab so many times until you find the application you want to locate and appear in the foreground.
If you did not know this keyboard shortcut, today you can say that you are a little more productive.
