Also for inactive windows...
Also in the Finder, you can use the scroll wheel to even scroll up and down in columns of windows that aren't even the active window. I know IE has supported that for quite a while, and I've found it really useful. It's nice when you have 5 or 6 windows open, spread over two monitors. I can find exactly what I'm looking for--that URL or name/location, etc.-- all without leaving the current window I'm in. Hold down Command and then click on the titlebar of the windows that are in the background and you can move them around without making them active. Then once you've dug down to the window you want, you can hover over it and use the scroll wheel to scroll up and down within the window w/o making it active. This works in IE and the Finder--I just tried it in Terminal w/ several windows, and the scroll wheel held over an inactive window wouldn't work. Maybe it only works in Carbon apps? |
