OS X Hidden Gems

Written on January 29, 2010 by Bryan Schuetz

Have you ever noticed that little dark circle that appears within the close button of a document window in OS X when you have unsaved changes? Yeah, me neither. After years of diligent Mac use, this subtle little element somehow escaped me until now. I guess I remember noticing it at times but never realized it was telling me to save my work. It’s a nice touch and got me wondering about what other subtle elements I might have missed over the years…

Here is just one of the hidden gems in this post by Bryan Schuetz.

Finder

Pressing Control while clicking on the current location icon at the top of the Finder window opens a menu to let you select any parent location along that particular file path.

The hidden gems include info about:

  • Save Dialog
  • Displays
  • Airport
  • Finder
  • Screen
  • Dictionary
