Modify the Finder's visual animation settings
Speaking of adding an eject button to the menu bar, when I added a second DVR-109 (DVD Burner) and then rebooted an eject button was automatically added to my menu bar.

I think that's probably how TinkerTool is able to add it -- the functionality already exists but it's usually disabled unless you have 2 optical drives (I'm guessing). TinkerTool is, after all, well known for enabling existing but hidden preferences, not for adding entirely new features. It does what it does very well and I'll be happy to try these new animation remover options to see how my system performs.

Tinkertool would probably use:
open /System/Library/CoreServices/Menu\ Extras/Eject.menu
(Using 10.3.9, I don't know if this has changed for Tiger).

Copy and paste into terminal, don't use above:
open /System/Library/CoreServices/Menu\ Extras/Eject.menu

If you explore the parent directory (
/System/Library/CoreServices/Menu Extras) you'll find a bunch of Menu Extras, some familiar some not so familiar, including the mysterious 'Home Sync' menu extra (Home on iPod, anyone? Although that's probably a discussion best left for Think Secret).
Double-clicking [most of] these will add them to the Menu Bar. Command-drage of course removes them.

Besides my superdrive a pioneer 104, I have a pioneer 109, pioneer A09 and a pioneer 107D all on the firewire bus and the eject button never appeared in my menubar. I did know that it can be add by running the eject menu item but I never really needed it. I wrote applescripts calling shell scripts to do the same thing. |
