On our computer desktop, we usually put some commonly used applications, documents, pictures, etc., so that we can use them quickly. Sometimes there are too many application windows open on the desktop. When you want to return to the desktop, it is very troublesome to shrink the windows one by one. At this time, you need to use a shortcut method to display the desktop. The following editor will introduce several shortcuts for displaying the desktop on Mac.
Method 1: Display the desktop through shortcut keys
1. The system comes with shortcut keys
Command+F3
Fn + F11
(PS: The keyboard with Touch Bar needs to use the F1-F12 function buttons. Long press the "Fn key" to display it.)
2. Customize shortcut keys
If you think you can’t remember the shortcut keys that come with the system and you want to change it, you can open "System Preferences-Mission Control (Mission Control)"
In the dispatch center interface, find the "Keyboard and Mouse Shortcuts" column, click the drop-down list next to "Show Desktop", you can customize a button that cooperates with the "Fn key" to display the desktop. For example, the editor uses "Fn + left shift key" here.
Method 2: Display the desktop through touchpad gestures
In addition to keyboard shortcuts, we can also display the desktop through multi-finger gestures on the touchpad, which is more convenient and faster.
1. Open "System Preferences-Touchpad";
2. Click the "More gestures" column in the touchpad settings window;
3. Make sure that the multi-finger operation option for "Show Desktop" is checked. After checking it, just use your thumb and three other fingers (all five fingers are fine) to make an open motion on the touchpad to display the desktop. Is it very convenient?
