What is the keyboard shortcut for Minimize (Adobe Lightroom)
The keyboard shortcut for Minimize in Adobe Lightroom is Command + M (macOS) or Ctrl + M (Windows). This shortcut minimizes the Lightroom application window, hiding it from view but keeping it running in the background.
Minimizing a window can be useful when you need to access another application or when you want to temporarily hide Lightroom from view. When you minimize Lightroom, it will still be running in the background, and you can easily restore it to view by clicking on its icon in the dock or taskbar.

This will hide the Lightroom window, but Lightroom will still be running in the background. You can restore Lightroom to view by clicking on its icon in the dock or taskbar.
The Minimize shortcut is a convenient way to temporarily hide Lightroom from view or to access another application while using Lightroom. By using the Minimize shortcut, you can quickly and easily switch between Lightroom and other applications.
