Minimizing a full-screen window on Mac without returning to small mode

During Full Screen Mode if we press Win Minimize it wont make any action. Additionally we need to bring back to Small Window mode and then press minimize. Is it not painful each time.

Correct

Also correct


Use apps in full screen on Mac


To work in a bigger window without going full screen, you can maximize the window; the window expands, but the menu bar and the Dock remain visible. See Maximize or minimize app windows
