I often find I'm working with several files nested deep within client project folders. Rather than clutter my screen with a pile of open Finder windows, I've instead created a Smart Folder that focuses on the active files I'm working on.
Create and save a smart folder with the following options:
- Select Others... at the top of the Smart Folder and add the folder or folders you want included, making sure to uncheck other items like Macintosh HD, etc.
- Kind = Any
- Last Modified = Since Yesterday
[robg adds: This is a pretty basic Spotlight/Smart Folders tip, but might be useful to those who are just starting to work with Smart Folders. This hint explained how to create a similar list of recent applications.]
