Another very frustrating NO Help from Help!!!! I am in Numbers and want to display all Numbers files I have open. I click on Windows then "bring all to front" and nothing happens. I then go to Numbers Help and search on bring all to front. Nothing. It's almost as though Apple does not want one to figure out how to do stuff. This makes me yearn for my MS Office Help.
Any thoughts?

Hi MD_Gene,
I am not quite sure what you are trying to do. You may be trying to access Mission Control. This will show all open docs and apps not just Numbers. The default on my Macbook Pro is F3 inspite of my preferences being set like this. F3 does have the mission control icon on it.

That is very helpful. I wish Help was as effective. I am trying to display windows of all open workbooks in Numbers. Your response covers that completely. Thanks
But I still am curious as to what "bring all to front" means in the menu. Plus wonder why I can't find help for that feature?
Hi MD_Gene,
Bring all to front does do that. I think it is an expansion of the "bring to front" arrange choice that Numbers, Pages et al have when you want to decide what objects on a page are in front or behind others.
Currently on my desktop I have 2 safari windows, 3 mail windows, and 1 Numbers windows. If I am reading an email and click into this window, this safari window is in front of that e-mail window. My other safari window is buried somewhere behind the Numbers window and the other Mail windows as it happens. Bring to front will, in this case, bring the 2nd safari window behind this one. I can't say I have used it. Mission control is much more effective.
