This concept does not exist on Mac OS X. Yes, that seems to be it ... >I usually work in Photoshop in the Full screen view that shows just >one image file and the menubar, tool pallets, etc, and set the color >of the background in that view to be white or very light gray. OK, that is what I ended up doing as well, allthough I need to find where I can set the color of that background ... >(Pressing F will cycle you through Window, Full Screen + Menubar, and >Full Screen.

Thanks for the hint :-) > >When I want to look at multiple images with Photoshop simultaneously >in a single view, I use Bridge. Mostly, these days, I use Lightroom >which has better facilities for this. Yes, so do I, for photographs. When doing artwork though, I often had several images opened in photoshop, and used the clipboard to copy/past stuff from one to the other. That would be a little more difficult if you only see one of the images at a time. Allthough, with that kind of work it is not that important to have a neutral background, so I can take it out of fullscreen mode then. It is just getting used to a slightly different pardigm :-) Thanks for the insights ...
