Thanks for the tip!
It's actually f11, shift+f11, f12 to hide everything for me.

We should probably assign a verb/hotkey combo to hide/restore everything except the canvas. 
I'd suggest using Tab like most other graphics applications do, however I really do like Tab to jump the selection to the next object in the hierarchy... tough one. :)

F11, then Shift + F11 works for me. (Ctrl+F11, which should do it, does
nothing for me on LinuxMint Xfce - never investigated if that's a
desktop shortcut problem...).
