Hide applications

You can hide the application that is running by clicking Command + h. This is very handy when for example the iTunes application. You can still listen to the music and hide the iTunes out of your desktop.

But what about if you just want to see only 1 application that you’re working on, while you want to hide all others in second? Some application will have the ‘Hide others’ feature. Right click the icon on the dock and press Option, you’ll see the ‘Hide’ menu will change to ‘Hide Others’.

And when you want to go to other application and keep the desktop clean, just press Option + click the icon on the Dock Now you have a very clean desktop.
