How to Collapse Open Windows Now (Tab no longer works)

So I used to use the TAB button to quickly collapse windows so I can easily view the ship tree. Since the last update this no longer works and a search in the ESC menu does not provide a clearly visible alternative to do this. Has anyone figured out how to do it? or can we get an option to do this in the future?

If you press STRG+TAB / CTRL+TAB key's, a little window in center of screen appear.
It contains all opened EvE-Windows.

Keeping STRG / CTRL pressed and release/press TAB key you can move through the icons in this window.
The last icon in this little window allow you to collapse all open windows except the NeoCom menue and vice versa.
I did not find any key binding to this function in the game settings. What?

Alternate you can use STRG+F9 / CTRL+F9 key's to fade-out/fade-in all user interaction windows including the NeoCom.

STRG key:

It is usually labeled Ctrl (rarely, Control or Ctl is seen) on keyboards which use English abbreviations for key labeling. Abbreviations in the language of the keyboard layout also are in use. e.g. the German layout uses Strg as required by the German standard DIN 2137:2012-06.
