Mac OS: Show and hide the dock using a keyboard shortcut
The dock under MacOS is very practical. However, if you want to hide it for a short time, it is best to use a key combination.
Show and hide Mac Dock using a keyboard shortcut
You can hide the Dock via the Control Panel in the "Dock" area. But the keyboard is even faster:
- Hold down the [CMD] + [ALT] + [D] keys.
- Then maximize the current program. This is the best way to use the space at the bottom of the screen.
- You can use the same key combination to permanently show the dock again.
You can also change the view of your dock. We'll show you exactly how.
