This was an idea that came to me suddenly about ten minutes ago. I like it so much I'm going to share it.
We all (probably) know that if you need fast access to the desktop, you can hit Win+D and everything's instantly minimised.
And anyone who's used that from any sort of workflow -- like, six windows open and you were working that way and it was fine until you suddenly needed access to the desktop -- you'll remember that you then end up restoring one window at a time, there's no instant way back.
Now, with a Toolbox action, there is.
(Start)
HOW TO USE: Copy from Start to End, and then paste into an action.
REFERENCE : See an example of pasting at alomware.com/paste.png
0001 Computer: Show the desktop ""
0002 Alert: Show a message "Click OK to restore"
0003 Computer: Restore minimized windows ""
(End)
I've assigned this to ctrl-shift-D as ctrl and shift are right by the win key on my keyboard so building a new muscle memory should be simple. :)
