Secrets of the Command-Tab Mac Application Switcher

command tab

Command-Tab in Mac OS X works really well as a quick application switcher and I use it all the time, but there’s more features available within the Command-Tab application switcher than just hitting Command+Tab itself. Once you’re in the application switcher you can try some of these other commands.

Command+Tab launches the application switcher, continue holding down Command and then try:

* tab – move selection to the right in the app list
* ` – move selection to the left
* h – hide the selected application
* q – quit the selected application
* mouse scrollwheel – move the selection back and forth
* left arrow – move selection to the left
* right arrow – move selection to the right
* up arrow – enter expose within the selected application
* down arrow – enter expose within the selected application

Memorize these tips to master the Mac application switcher and speed up your workflow! (Note: the expose features appear to be Snow Leopard only)

If you tab in exposé you can quickly choose between applications with previewing them.

Actually, pressing ‘H’ toggles visibility. It can be used to unhide as well as hide.
