Is there a short cut?

I can't seem to quickly make a "panel" in the layout (I don't really know the correct terminology) become a full size panel covering the screen temporarily than minimize it back into the regular layout.

For example, from the home page I will do a search and many little "panels" of various books and Bibles show up in different locations on the layout. Some panels are quite small. Perhaps I want to focus on one resource for a short time without losing all the others, can I easily and temporarily enlarge this one panel to fill the screen, then just as quickly minimize it back into its usual position in the layout?

I suspect everyone else knows how to do this, but me. I tried to search for an answer, but couldn't even figure out what to ask for in help.

Two options: "Float a panel" or "reading view." The later makes the panel full screen temporarily. "Floating" a Panel will allow you to have a larger panel that can be "docked" later. This is useful if you want to move the panel to another monitor, for example.

SHIFT-CMD-F puts you quickly in reading view. Doing the same again quickly puts you back. OPTION-CMD-F will float the panel. OPTION-SHIFT-CMD-F will dock the panel. However, the program doesn't seem to be smart enough to know to dock the panel back to its previous location. You will have to drag it back in place.

Thank you for your help. I knew there was some simple command to do it and a simple short cut. The wording I needed was float or read. Problem solved.
