Finder hiding
You can hide the Finder whenever a program is open. Hiding the Finder
prevents you from accidentally leaving a program in which you are working
(and going to the Finder) by clicking outside the program window. Finder
items on your screen—such as the hard disk, Trash, and folders—are hidden
until you close the program.
To set the Finder-hiding option, open the Apple (K) menu and choose Control
Panels. Then open the General Controls panel.
