We recommend closing all unused windows so we can focus on the code we're looking at. Use Command + Shift + F12 (on Mac) or Control+Shift+F12 (on Windows/Linux) to hide all tool windows.

We can always reopen them using shortcuts. Here are the shortcuts to some of the most used windows:

• To open or close the Project Tool Window use ⌘1 (on Mac) or Alt+1 (on Windows/Linux)
• To open or close the Commit Tool Window use ⌘0 (on Mac) or Alt+0 (on Windows/Linux)
• To open or close the Terminal Tool Window use Alt+F12
• To open or close the Git Tool Window use ⌘9( on Mac) or Alt+4 (on Windows/Linux)
• To open or close the Run Tool Window use ⌘4( on Mac) or Alt+4 (on Windows/Linux)
• To open or close the Debug Tool Window use ⌘5( on Mac) or Alt+5 (on Windows/Linux)

You can also use keyboard shortcuts to stretch the active window. Go to the relevant window, and use ⌃ ⌥ ← or ⌃ ⌥ → (on Mac) or Control+Alt+Shift+Left or Control+Alt+Shift+Right (on Windows/Linux) to stretch the window left or right. This also works with the tool windows at the bottom, using the up or down arrows to stretch the window up or down.
