Thank you, Tim Tim, I don't know of a shortcut to actually close them all, but you can use Esc S M t to toggle between full-screen (no dialogs/pods visible) and normal mode. As a workaround, I have a Workspace I call "Clean", which I saved after closing all the pods.

Now I also notice that the same can be accomplished by clicking the UI Visibility button, which resides right next to the Help menu header. Clicking that button hides all open pods -- it also hides all toolbars, but that's OK with me. One click is nice. But it would also be nice to have a keyboard shortcut for the UI Visibility button.

Re: Keyboard shortcut for closing dialogs/pods
The FM 5.5 UNIX Solaris version was so nice in that regard as you could use the OS capabilities to assign shortcut key that were a single key and along with Cntl/Alt and even add a shift to expand the options. I patterned mine (mostly) after the Mac shortcut keys (substituting for the Apple key with Cntl or Alt w/ or w/o shift). That is the kind of pattern they should shoot for in shortcut keys when designing the interface, but some of this is limited by the limitations of the OS. Is Windows that inflexible that this can't be done?
