It's not possible to close the Plugin by pressing (esc).

Cheers

works by "close window" command with F12 (macOS fn key + F12).

You can change it in the key command setting or set a multiple shortcut.

Look here (German):

I don't see any close window command in studio one.

The close command is closing the whole program.

yishayraziel1 

in english language version search for "Toogle Floating Window"

By the way... DonĀ“t you know the command term but you know the shortcut, carry this out and open your keyboard shortcuts settings. It will display the command for the last shortcut that you used.

answer by andrefreitag1: Toggle Floating Windowcloses all floating windows (except the detached mixer and editor), not only the window in focus.

@ niles For me it close only the Plugin window or all plugin windows if more than one open. Even if i do select another window in the focus. The console (mixer), edit window etc. remain standing.

Is there perhaps a difference between Win and OSX? Has wrote with maurice... It works for him too.

look here the videoscreen:

answer by andrefreitag1 Correct, Console and Editor are not affected on Windows either. However Toggle Floating Windows does affect all other floating windows at once, like (pinned) Insert editors, Instrument editors, detached panel (quantize, macro etc.), External device editor, video player, MIDI monitor, Performance Monitor, Metronome Setup etc.

Is that different on Mac?

On Windows  I close single windows with ALT+F4 btw.

The "Toggle Floating Windows" is a nice option to assign a key to. But yes: it does close / toggle all open windows instead of just the focused one. Furthermore it is not possible to assign the escape-key / ESC to any keyboard shortcut.

Yes -- it should be command W on Macs!

Toogle Floating Window tied to Cmd + W helps a little bit but it would be ideal to be able to close the current active windows only and not all windows together.
