Control Exposé by keyboard

Exposé is great to quickly find open applications or a specific window inside an application. We introduced you to Exposé in this post.

Today let’s explore how we can control Exposé only by using the keyboard.

You invoke Exposé using the default keys F9 or F10 (to show either all or the application’s open windows).

* Press the tab key (please read this post to help you identify it) to go through all windows of every application, application after application.

* Use the arrow keys to select a different window.

* When you have reached the desired application or window, press the enter/return key or the space bar to activate it.

So the usefulness (and certainly eye candy) of Exposé is at your finger tips, without having to lift them from the keyboard.
