    Nope. The ones in the lower left of Finder windows are. Toolbar icons were springy in Jag, but not yet in Panther.

    Close enough, for me.



    If you're moving files around, then you're in the Finder to begin with, right?



    (Well, okay, you could be selecting a text chunk and like to be able to drop it into a folder as a text clipping file, as you would on the Desktop, or drop an image from a web page into a folder... hey... Dammit Apple! Why haven't you done this?!? )

    They won't be, as I understand it. The Finder Toolbar is becoming a standard Toolbar, with buttons, but not droppable targets. Those are moved to the left pane.

    So in other words, there is no such option

    Re: Console

    Does the new Console have color prefs like Terminal (i.e. not just the font color option in Jag)? Transparent backround? I'd love to have the console window trasparent, borderless (titlebarless), and permanently backgrounded against the desktop... but transparent alone would be a good start.



    Thanks.

    Console is called version 2.0 (Jag is 1.2), but I can't seem to find any differences. I'm not a developer, so I'm not very familiar with the Console, but (at least on the surface) it seems unchanged.



    No window transparency/color options.

    Console is HUGELY different.



    There is only so much a console application can display (the various logs in Mac OS X), but the UI has been totally revamped with the toolbar, Open System Log, preferences...



    Considering the whole app is just a UI (doesn't do anything else), of course it's going to be version 2.



    And Console is not just handy to developers. Any error messages go through Console Log or other logs. Webmaster, sysadmin, whatever, console is gooood for them.

    In a Finder screenshot, I have seen a folder in the Utilities folder named "SmartCard".



    What are the contents? Will we see SmartCard authentication? I once read that this is a feature requested by the US Army...



    I don't know if this has already been answered, but does can change to another user's desktop while the original desktop is locked/screen saver running as Windows XP does?

    Well if you un-check all three of the top boxes, that's all the stuff that would appear there; drives, discs, and servers. Then just don't put any files there... and they won't be there. Is this not what you mean? Or is there another way to have nothing on your desktop?

    Path Finder offers the option to not show the files on your desktop.



    But you are correct, you can keep your "junk" anywhere you want to

    If your where in OS 9 and hit F1 key it would ask you if you wanted to set that function key to any app to open with.....so you hit F1 on your keyboard and say itunes opens up for you...no need to find it's icon and open it....that is what i mean....there are apps out for os x that do this now but it should be with the OS X to start with like os 9 had.



    Like Xkeys for os x now



    http://www.versiontracker.com/dyn/moreinfo/macosx/18713



    Product Description:

    Xkeys allows you to launch applications and open files and folders just by pressing a function key. Function keys can have submenus, duplicating the functionality of Fkey Expander. It can also be put on standby with a keystroke. The ability of function keys to launch things is a feature of OS 9 that has been dropped in Mac OS X for some reason. Xkeys brings it back and combines it with the functionality of the Fkey Expander.



    Get what i mean now?

    Any improvements to the Print Center? Right now it is kinda clunky. Can anyone shed some light?



    Thanks

    I just want to reiterate this is the greatest OS X thread EVAR. That is all.

    Have a fine 4th.
