How do see all of the images I have open when they are hidden?

I open several images and that is fine, I can see them all in Photoshop but when I make one of them 'full screen' to work on it and then after closing that one image all of the others are hidden and I can only bring them back by going to 'Window' to choose open files and can only make them visible choosing them one-by-one... I've tried searching, like choosing 'Bring all to front' but that does not bring them back into view. Is it possible to bring back all open documents so I can see them again rather than having to bring them into view again one by one? Thank You, - Ken

You can move tab order with click hold & drop.

Or simply go to File > Browse in Bridge. Bridge is a dedicated file manager that facilitates viewing and filtering images by any criteria you specify. I work with Photoshop & Bridge side-by-side.

Can't believe all the pros missed this simple fix. Go to very bottom of toolbar, press and hold on that button, and select Standard Screen Mode. Or just press F to cycle through the options.

After re-reading the question, I think this is what you're after. See screenshot.

That is what I see also Nancy when I go to window > then there is a list of everything that is open, but then are not tabbed as I want to arrange them differently in the window and various sizes also. So, I am gathering that once I bring one to the front full screen then the others will not be able to be viewed again as I had arranged them unless I go to the listing like you show by touching on the double-arrow also, the same listing as I would see under Window menu item... I guess I will just have to be a little more 'cagey' about how I open windows and be sure not to view them as full screen... Thank You for you help and input on this also as it helps steer me in the right direction...
