Switching programs
You can switch to another open program or desk accessory
by choosing its name from the Application menu.
If a program’s icon is dimmed in the menu, that means its
windows are hidden. Choosing the program from the Application
menu displays its windows.
You can also switch to another program by clicking in a window
that belongs to an open program, or by double-clicking a program
icon (or the icon of a document that was created with the
program).
Hiding and showing windows on the desktop
You can hide all windows except those of the active program by
choosing the Hide Others command from the Application menu.
The other programs remain open even though the windows are
hidden. When you switch to another program, its windows are
displayed.
If you want to see all the open windows, choose Show All from
the Application menu.
