Window Hunting

Tell a Friend

Ever have too many open windows? So many that you're not sure which button is which on your toolbar? Read on.

An easy way to switch between them is to hit ALT-TAB. A small box will pop up with icons for all the currently open programs (even settings windows that don't display on the tool bar - like display properties for instance).

Simply hit TAB (keeping ALT pressed down) until the window you're looking for is highlighted. Notice that as you tab, the title bar information is displayed below the icons.

 

Oh, also - hold down the ALT & SHIFT key while hitting TAB to go backwards through the list.

Open a couple of programs and try it.
