Exposé, a window management feature, allows you to quickly display all of the windows you have open, display all of the windows in the active application or clear away all windows so you can access a desktop file.
- To see all your open windows, hold down the F9 key.
- To see all the windows open in your current application, hold down the F10 key.
- To hide all the open windows so you can see the desktop, hold down the F11 key.
When you press and hold the keys to activate Exposé, the windows return to normal as soon as you release the keys. If you press the activation keys quickly instead of holding them, Exposé stays activated until you choose a window or press the key again.
While using Exposé, point to a window to see its name or click the window to bring it to the front, making it the active window. You can also use the arrow keys to highlight windows, and you can press Tab to cycle through open applications and display their windows together.
To Use Exposé
1. Press F9 to scale all open windows so that they are visible and not overlapping.
2. Press F10 to bring all windows of the active application to the foreground.
3. Press F11 to hide all windows and display the Desktop.
4. Click on any window to make it the active window.
