@MC Return:
Very many thanks for that. I had just gone about it the laborious way, 
installing wmctrl and copying a script I came across* to be run from a keyboard 
shortcut, but this is definitely easier. I was congratulating myself that 'my' 
way did not need the key combination to be hit twice, but I see that sometimes 
it does. Very odd, but not so very important...

BTW, I missed it in the 'Keyboard Shortcuts' list because it has changed
its job title from 'Show Desktop' to 'Hide all normal windows'.

PS: * script to toggle 'show desktop':
#!/bin/sh
if wmctrl -m | grep "mode: ON"; then
exec wmctrl -k off
else
exec wmctrl -k on
fi
