Apple has changed the 'magic open sesame' to all the cool hidden features of Quartz Debug in version 4.2.
Why make such a useful app and then hide almost every feature? I just can't understand the logic in this.
Anyway as an update of my old hint here are the new steps to take to gain access to the goodies.

- Launch Terminal.
- At the prompt, type the following command line followed by [Enter]:
defaults write com.apple.QuartzDebug QuartzDebugPrivateInterface -boolean YES - Launch Quartz Debug and you should notice new options in the 'Tools' and 'Windows' menus.
- Should you like to undo the changes and go back to the stock Quartz Debug just type the following in Terminal (followed by [Enter]):
defaults delete com.apple.QuartzDebug QuartzDebugPrivateInterface - Close any window not normally accessible from the menu and voila your QD is as it was.
