RE: Window switching within an app’s open subwindows:
1. Cmnd+~ (Tilde) key=Switches through the subwindows that are open within an app.
EXAMPLE: Apple Mail:
OPEN: 1. Apple Mail main window 2. Apple Mail preferences window 3. One email ‘read’ window 4. One email ‘write’ window
Cmnd+~ (tap the Tilde key, just like tapping the Tab key to switch between apps) will cycle through & bring to the forefront all of the above 4 windows, one after the other.
Again, let up on the Cmnd key when the subwindow you want is in the forefront.

macCOOLtip: Drag information from one app’s subwindow to another.
- EXAMPLE: Drag Safari URLs from the URL address window of one open Safari window to the tab bar area of a 2nd open Safari window.
- HOW: Although most any & all apps will work with this, start up Safari for this example.
Get 2 webpages visible in that Safari window you opened. Now open another Safari window & get 3 webpages opened in that window.
Now click the system Apple in the topleft & open up System Preferences. Then in the top row click on Dashboard & Expose.
Select a corner of your screen to move your mousearrow to do your subwindow switching (I use the top right corner).
For that corner you’ve thought of, click in the list at that corner & then select “Application Windows” from the list.
Leave Sys Preferences open for now, & Cmnd-Tab over to Safari.

In one Safari window, get your mouse arrow in the address window. Hold down the left mouse button & slightly budge a URL’s icon to see if it’s moving or not.
When you get a ghost icon, drag that ghost icon & address to the corner you chose earlier & leave it there until all the app’s subwindows show up onscreen (might have to bump it up into that corner once or twice).
Drag that URL icon on top of the Safari window you want the webpage to go into & leave it over that window until the window blinks several times & then comes to the forefront.
Drop the URL on the right side of the tab bar in an empty area there & let go of the mouse button. Or alternatively, drag that URL into that window’s URL address area & drop it in there.
Your webpage will come up just as it was up in the previous Safari window.
NOTE:
BOTH of the above switching methods (Cmnd+Tab switch between apps & Cmnd-Tilde switch between an app’s open subwindows) can also be done using only the mouse via Expose, if Expose is set up properly. My corners: TopLeft: “All Windows” TR: “Application Windows” BR: Screensaver BL: Desktop (i.e., with ‘Desktop,’ ALL open windows get mostly disappear into all 4 sides of the screen, which reveals the Desktop.
