so if you have a folder that contains another folder of shortcuts for example, you can only open the folder, not preview multiple levels. I can still get a pop up, but a hate all of the real-estate it uses on the screen, also, from the pop ups, you only get one level. In the past, i would create a folder and place shortcuts to all of my applications in it and sort the shortcuts in folders, i could then drop the folder in the dock and with a simple right click have access to all of my applications from a organized menu and have a nice clean and tidy dock to boot. now you know.Ĥ.) The dock… well what can I say. the issue is skirted and never answered directly by apple because they want you to upgrade. even with the much talked about cover flow. 10.5 still does not preview the most commonly used graphics formats. I would have wished apple would have ditched the whole quicklook thing in place of just getting the system to correctly preview illustrator, indesign, quark and other commonly used media files in the finder. The point being, the finder already previews file… images, pdfs, and a few other formats.
XCODE UPDATE STUCK INSTALL
As a graphics professional, i been through a few version of adobes bridge application and others like it in the past few years, and most people i know never use bridge or choose not to install it during the install process.

The only other comment I would have about the finder, and this is probably shared by most people, is that quick look is a stupid eye-candy feature, and not really useful for anything other than browsing photo collections. The only drawback, as mentioned above, is that the icons in the sidebar can not be resized.

XCODE UPDATE STUCK MAC OS X
who cares.ģ.) The finder itself is great as a whole, it’s fast and does it’s job well and the redesigned look matches the rest of the mac os x experience really well. this new default image screams so loud you can see anything but “space”.įinder + Coverflow: aka: Coverblow.
XCODE UPDATE STUCK WINDOWS
I personally like something a little more solid and subtle that draws my attention to the windows and icons on the desktop. That picture file is the background shown when you start up your computer behind the login screen. “lame space” ! My suggestion is digging into the system/library folder on the root directory, finding the core services folder and replacing the file “DefaultDesktop.jpg” with something easier on the eyes. Why not some new blackish variation on one of the many faces of the blue swishy background? Not we get. The swirly 60’s startrek theme is probably where steve jets his magic reality distortion dust from. It makes me recall old lame redhat and caldera linux background from the early 90’s. who is the startrek fan at apple?Ģ.) The default wall paper is also apples most hideous offering to date. There should really be an option for larger icons or at least they should automatically grow and resize when the sidebar divider is pulled out and made larger, they are just much too small.ĭefault Wallpaper: BAD: all i can say is. That seems like a serious OS design flaw. The current “tiny” icons are hard to see and navigate, especially for children, elderly or people with special needs. Also, on the icon rant, the icons in the sidebar of the finder can not be set to a larger size. vistas look better, and thats a sad comment. now for some reason in 10.5 apple took a step back an has gone to a flat, dull icon theme. Mac os has been known from day one for beautiful 3d, realistic icons that have made other os’s icons look like crap. Icons: BAD: If you need them large in the sidebar, you may want to wait.ġ.) The Icons are hideous compared to past version of mac os x. because everyone at all the major publications are paid well to blow smoke and reality distortion dust up everyones butt, i’m not. So, before you creative professionals who need applications a mouse click away and people who like clean organized docks go upgrading. but here is my BIG NOTE TO APPLE… we (the end users) do not like features being taken away from us… and your way is NOT always better.

Yes there are little things that bugged me, but overall great. I upgraded my 10.4.10 install of Tiger to Leopard 10.5 (gm) build 9a581) with all the excitement of a little boy on christmas morning, however, within two hours found myself backing up my personal files wiping the install, going back to tiger. add this to your review or leopard.īefore i get too far into this review, i just want to say this.
