All the previous keystrokes still work but there are extra elements alongside the previous timer, say. It’s previously been mostly used as part of the Grab app that sits in the Utilities folder. It’s something I find phenomenally useful, for snagging a part of a web page to remember flight times or prices, say. You can use an enhanced Quick Look feature by tapping the space bar when a file is closed, so that extra capabilities are then presented, such as markup, rotate and more.ĭo you use this feature? If not, maybe you’ve never known it was there. There’s now a new Gallery view that adds extra detail such as metdata alongside images, videos and more. Still, that’s what public beta software is for, so you can give your feedback.Ĭheck your Stocks in the new desktop app. Of course, you can turn Stacks off with just a couple of clicks and they go back to how they were before (messy) but I’d like more flexibility. I love having all the elements together but I’d also like to drag, say, one folder to the other side of the desktop and leave it there so it's even quicker to find, but with Stacks it springs back into its previous place as though on taut elastic. For me, this is the better of the two options and works very nicely. Or, second, click the pile and it will spread itself out neatly into separate items across the desktop until you choose one (it’ll then open) or click on it again to return to one stack. First, run your finger across the pile (two if using a trackpad) and it scrolls through individual items. Place your mouse on the pile of PDFs, say, and you have two options. Folders don’t, by the way, they still occupy one space each. With Stacks, all your image, movies, PDFs and documents sit in separate piles on top of each other.

Sure, you can clean up the desktop so all the folders appear next to each other, but it’s still a bit of a mess. If you save stuff to the desktop (and if you don’t, really, who are you?) then you’ll be familiar with the cluttered look with which you soon end up. This is another visually very different element and, though it takes a little getting used to, the tidy-freak inside me is delighted by it.
