What is the keyboard shortcut to 'maximize' a window (not full screen, just maximized)?

I want to be able to use a keyboard shortcut to maximize a window completely instead of holding 'shift' while clicking the green plus circle on a window.

I am trying to close floating windows (effects and instruments) using ALT-W not CMD-W.
Ah, okay, never used that one. Have you checked your *Key Commands* that this shortcut actually still is assigned? Even if it is, it might just help to reassign it (to the same keycombo).
(much later:)
Mm, I did a search of Logic key commands, but I cannot find any command that closes floating windows, alt-W is not a default shortcut for anything... to what command exactly did you assign alt-W?

    There is no listing of this shortcut even in the FF shortcut help page. Am not able to set it also. How to enable it back?

    There has never been a shortcut in Firefox to open the Option windows.<br />
    If you had such a keyboard shortcut in the past then is had been added by an extension that possibly added a toolbar button as well.
    You can use Alt+T to open the Tools menu and then press O (you can keep Alt pressed) to open the Options window.

    In Leopard and later, the following keys can be held down while selecting an area (via Command-Shift-4 or Command-Control-Shift-4):
    Space, to lock the size of the selected region and instead move it when the mouse moves
    Shift, to resize only one edge of the selected region
    Option, to resize the selected region with its center as the anchor point

  • What is the keyboard shortcut to move to the next sheet in Numbers.

    What is the keyboard shortcut on a Macbook Pro to move to the next sheet in the Numbers application. Based on my search of the internet, I have tried fn+command+arrow up, and it does not work. I have tried every other combo I could think of or that was suggested on the internet, but to no avail. Is there a keyboard shortcut if just using the keyboard of a MacBook Pro?

    There use to be a shortcut key, but I think they killed it with the last update. I haven't been able to find one that works. Hopefully someone here can settle this.

  • What is the keyboard shortcut for changing dictation language in Yosemite?

    I can't find the keyboard shortcuts to change the dictation language in Mac OS X?
    I would really appreciate if someone help me with this problem. I work with two languages and I really can't find any way to do that.
    Thanks for your help guys

    Until the developer can release dictationswitcher compatible with Yosemite, here is an AppleScript that will toggle between two languages. After it switches, it will speak which language has been set. Currently, the spoken text is in English (United States). This script will work on Yosemite and Mavericks. Tested.
    What you need to do to get this to work.
    Add your alternative language to the Dictation Language pop-up.Set your languages in the AppleScript property strings exactly as they appear in the Dictation Language Menu.
    Copy/Paste the following AppleScript into your Script Editor (/Applications/Utilities).
    Click the hammer (compile) button
    Save once as File format text (dictation.applescript) - don't hide the extension, or check any of the checkboxes.
    Option+Save As… File format Application to your Desktop. Hide the extension, and check no other checkboxes.
    The first time that you run this application, you will receive a dialog box just like the one below (I changed the name back to dictation):
    Click Open System Preferences. Click on the gold lock button in the lower left corner. The Accessibility category will be selected, but the dictation application in the list of apps will be unchecked. Check it, and then click the gold lock again. Quit out of the dictation application on your Desktop, and run it again. If you happen to get another dialog indicating that it still does not have permission, revisit the System Preferences > Security & Privacy panel, and under the Privacy tab > Accessibility, uncheck the dictation application, and then recheck it again. Quit System Preferences. This happened to me, and following this second action allowed it to work properly.
    Future releases of OS X may impact this application if Apple changes the order of the UI elements.
    I modified this AppleScript from an Apple StackExchange post by qegal in 2012.
    Copy/Paste the following AppleScript into your Yosemite Script Editor per the above instructions.
    property defaultLang : "English (United States)"
    property altLang : "German (Germany)"
    -- property altLang : "French (France)"
    tell application "System Events" to set p to (path to frontmost application) as string
         tell application "System Preferences"
         activate
              reveal anchor "Dictation" of pane "com.apple.preference.speech"
         end tell
         tell application "System Events"
              tell process "System Preferences"
                   tell pop up button 1 of tab group 1 of window "Dictation & Speech"
                        click
                        try
                             if (get value of attribute "AXValue") contains defaultLang then
                                 click menu item altLang of menu 1
                                 say "Dictation set to " & altLang
                             else if (get value of attribute "AXValue") contains altLang then
                                click menu item defaultLang of menu 1
                                say "Dictation set to " & defaultLang
                             end if
                       on error errmsg number errnbr
                             tell process "System Preferences" to if it is running then quit
                             display alert altLang & "not configured in Dictation Languages, please add." as critical giving up after 10
                       end try
                   end tell
           end tell
    end tell
    quit application "System Preferences"
    activate application p
