hey- does anyone know how to do the alt-tab like windows thing but on Mac OS X, i.e. in windows u hold alt button and push tab button to navigate a mini window to switch progs, any way to do that in OS X?
 
Command + tilder goes in that list backwards when the little window is up

also command tilde switches between active windows within an application ... one of my favorite uses is photoshop

just stay tabbed to it and cmd Q.

That doesn't work for me. :(

(Yes, I'm using 10.3)

-------------------------

Cmd + A here. I guess someone at Apple didn't account for AZERTY (French) keyboards. :( :mad: :mad:
 
You can also use Cmd + Tab to hide applications. Just hit 'h' when tabbed. This even works with apps that don't support the Cmd + h short cut for hidding them.

Use command-shift-left arrow and command-shift-right arrow

I just assigned that to my Cocoa Gestures (up-left and up-right). along with minimize and close, back/forth, close tab, new tab, and quit (close window is on my mouse).

you can use it in any cocoa program like safari. but not carbon like finder or IE. check it:here. it's dope.


peace.

In PS7 or CS? It used to work for me in 7 but no longer in CS.

Also, holding shift during cmd-tab or cmd-tilde goes in the opposite direction.
