Run Application Window

Run Application Window

This one seems to be fairly well known but is something that I recently discovered while at work.

In the world of Windows if you want to run an application from a “Run” window it was simply a click away on the Start menu. Ubuntu uses Gnome by default and as such you have no “Run” shortcut it would appear.

This is not the case however!

If you want to open a quick run window simply press the keys [ALT]+[F2] at the same time and you will be presented with a “Run Application” window.
