I trialled Quickeys a year ago and found it to be just what I wanted, but at the same time, I couldn't justify the asking price. Plus I personally found that it did slightly interfere with some other bits of software I was using. One important issue with independent hot-keys apps is that once...

A fair point - I'll stop being so negative. Although, surely what I'm asking for isn't too much? - like you say, the function keys were programmable in 9 - so maybe they will be in the final release... I guess I'm just a bit worried about using shareware - de-stabilises a system and often...

Rene, I am genuinely sorry about cross posting in your Windowshade topic! I seriously did believe it was relevant though. Are we even now? Cos if we are, I'm going to submit this post with Option+Tab x6, Return, Command+Left Square Bracket x2 and Command+W then Command+Q ;) I thank you!!

If OS X is "feature-frozen", does that mean that Apple aren't taking any more feedback? Or should we continue to post feedback to Apple with a view to influencing further releases? I mean, I've never posted feedback to Apple before but now I've got a taste for it, I'll probably do it every time...

Do we really have to resort to customisation, extra shareware or commercial add-ons and hacks again? I realise now that X 1.0 is "feature-frozen" and we probably will have to shell out for more of this sort of software, simply to bring the OS up to what a professional user requires. But WHY...

One set of features I was expecting in OS X was more finder hotkeys. My motive for opening this forum is to discover if anyone else feels the same and compile a feedback list of the best. I don't know much coding or, more importantly, Apple's long-term UI policy but I can't imagine any great...

Yesterday, I posted a request for the option discussed during the early stages of the forum - that when you click on the minimise button, the window docks but when you double-click the title bar the window simply shades. Can I add that having used the beta a bit more, I realise that the...

Is this the correct place to post suggestions for new Sections? No mention is made of it in the FAQs. It's just that I'm basically a graphic designer and not involved in general UI or Unix on a professional basis. But I wonder if anyone else agrees that it's time we opened a new section...

The OS9.1 implementation is certainly an improvement - the windows menu has been a feature of Internet Explorer, Photoshop and Illustrator for a while now and is invaluable. As for Rene's comment, I agree: I think for most work, we will be living in one Finder window - barring file or alias...

I'm sorry! I got a bit carried away there didn't I? - one hotkeys forum coming right up... But returning to windowshading: I notice a small problem with windowshading in aqua, although in any other apps, windowshade would work fine... At present, every finder window is titled "finder" and...

I'm interested to hear more on anyone's opinions of hotkeys. I should probably explain... I'm a graphic designer and spend most of the day switching between many applications - all with live documents in them. Call me lazy, but the less often I have to move my mouse across the whole of my...

I find using window shade in situations where you have over five or so "shaded" windows in OS9 counter-productive, especially if each window is called "Untitled 1", "Untitled 2" etc... so I started using OmegaWindow which is an extension allowing you to use a keyboard shortcut like ctrl + tab to...

I wonder if anyone has a problem similar to mine: I recently decided to dive in and install the OS X public beta so I bought a Sonnet Tempo Ultra66 ATA host PCI card and a nice big 30GB hard disk. I installed both into a blue and white G3 - both work fine. I partitioned the disk to allow the...
