Use a triple-click for an 'open window behind' action
One other thing, click related, I noticed in 0S X is that 'click and a half' seems to have gone, this was the process in 0S 9 and earlier by which you would click and release then on your second click hold the mouse button down without releasing (releasing at this point would just be a standard double click).

I dont think so. The OS9 finder was full of little things like this which made it a great app, so much better and faster than the OS X finder. Some of what you describe could be done with spring loaded folders in OS X but they are so slow and many times dont work at all: grab a file, drag it to a folder which spring opens, then to another folder and so on until you find the folder you want the file to go in, when you drop it, all folders close and I find that the file snaps back to where it was before starting the drag operation. Very frustrating so I have spring loaded folders turned off.

Click-and-a-half is gone in OS X. However, if you used FinderPop in your Classic days, you really need to try the new (and free!) FolderGlance.
This will allow you to browse thru folders without having to open each one, and it removes the delay I remember with click-and-a-half browsing.

The secret with OS 9s 'click and a half' to stop it being sluggish was to tap the space bar when you were over a folder, this made them open instantly.

I find the OS X Finder's column view about as convenient as click-and-a-half. With column view I rarely need more than one Finder window at a time. And, yes, I often tap the space bar when I want to move or copy something somewhere. It even works on items in the sidebar.

The delay for spring-loaded folders can be set in the Finder's preferences panel (as can the actual option for spring-loaded folders).

this should be a pick of the month for me... I loved FinderPop and am more than happy to find a part replacement ! THANKS and cheers to Turly the Author of FinderPop and inventor of "Pintware" :-) |
