Want to close an APP

When Apps are running you will note that they run full screen
without any sign of a the old RED X in the top right of the
screen. whilst minimizing the app, or opening another , puts it
in a sort of hibernated state ( ie barely running but ready to
start instantly) there are times you will want to close it
fully.
On a touch screen....
Place your finger at the top of the screen and drag down to the
bottom. When you touch the top the app shrinks and hovers at the
top, as your finger reaches the base of the screen (the app will
follow your finger) the app moves to the bottom and then
disappears, it is now closed.
With a mouse....
Move the mouse to the top of the screen, click and hold the left
mouse button, whilst holding it down drag the mouse to the base
of the screen, (the app will follow the mouse) release the mouse
button as it touches the bottom of the screen and the app
disappears and is now closed.
