Hi All, looking for a way to make the menu item "Bring All to Front" a
key command, especially in the finder, but hopefully one that would
apply to any currently active App.

Searching Mac Help, Apple support & Google turned up ZERO, which
surprised me for such an much-used function!

Command-Tab (or command-shift-tab) until the Finder or whatever App
you want to 'bring all to front' is highlighted in the dock.

thanks Shay, but perhaps i should clarify:

running several applications, i might wanna switch to the finder to drag a file onto a relevant application/document, but when i switch to the finder, the windows/documents of various application remain in front of open finder windows, which i want to drag files from. (so I then hide all applications, switch back to the original app to show it, then switch back to the finder to perfom the task)

This might sound petty, but in programs like golive & photoshop i am constantly moving between finder & the app to add files. (In OS 9, as soon as you change to the finder, all windows come to the front)
