Show Desktop button feature in OS X?

[2Turbo]

I'm coming from Windows 7 and really like the show desktop button in the bottom right corner, that once clicked, hides all windows and shows the desktop. I use this feature when snoopy people walk by my screen while online banking, etc.

Any comparable feature or third party programs?

Thanks 🙂

Click > System Preferences > Desktop & Screen Saver > Hot Corners, choose a corner and set the selection to Desktop. Then when you drag your mouse to that corner it will show your desktop

If you have a trackpad . . 4 finger swipe up shows the desktop.

If you have a trackpad . . 4 finger swipe up shows the desktop.

If you have a multitouch trackpad. My MacBook (pre-unibody) cannot do this.

You can also set a keyboard shortcut under Sys Prefs > Exposé. The default is F11.

Or get BetterTouchTool and assign a multi-touch gesture to show desktop (if the 4 finger swipe doesn't suit you).
