Easier way to close unwanted applications 🌞 Hello my dear reader 🌸 I hope you're doing splendid I really like to keep my workspace clean and close all the windows that I'm not using in that moment. When I have been working for some time, often I have opened more than 10 windows all together - most of them different windows for my browser (because I prefer having many windows with few tabs to one window with many tabs) and some of them other applications like Spotify. When I open the mission control and it shows more than five windows (= more than five different windows are open), I think it is too slow and messy to navigate between them, so I close all of them that I don't use. The problem: I have not found a way to close a window without first opening it. I would LOVE it, if on the Mission Control I could just click all of the windows that I want to close, or to swipe them on the left or something (like you can do on iPhones for example). However, now it seems to me that all I can do is to open mission control, open the window I want to close, and then click the close-symbol on the upper left corner. When I do the same for more than 10 windows, it ends up taking a lot of my precious time :-( I will probably never get it back Is there a better way to close the windows I am not using? 😍 I believe that there are more people who would find this solution very valuable Thank you so very much for your comprehensive answer 💛

How to unhide windows all belonging to the same app I have the same problem with all apps, from finder to a browser. If we take finder for example, if I have more than one finder window open, I want to be move from one window to another quickly. However the usual window swapping approaches using CMD-tab or the dock only rotate between apps, but not between windows in the same app. Is there a quick way to do this and even better could I make it a short cut? At the moment I have to use the Window menu and manually select the different windows at the bottom of that menu, which is slow and cumbersome. Because they are not fixed menu commands, you can't setup a shortcut.
