While clicking around in Exposé I noticed a couple useful features that might not be so obvious right away.  Once in Exposé you can navigate through your applications and windows in a variety of ways.

Lets explore!

Firstly, get into Exposé (for all windows).

Pressing the “tab” key will switch between Exposé windows for only the selected applications.  If you have the Dock showing notice the selected application highlighted as you switch between different ones.

You can also navigate between application windows within Exposé by clicking on the application icon in the Dock.  Clicking unopened application icons will close Exposé.

With Exposé open you can also switch between windows by using the arrow keys as well as mousing over each item.  If you press the “spacebar” the selected item will come into focus while remaining in Exposé.  This option will give you a clearer preview of the selected window.  If by chance you selected the wrong window preview fret not.  You can still switch between selected application windows by with the arrow keys as well as mousing over the original orientation of the other windows.  This navigation method applies to Exposé for all windows as well.

Stay tuned for more great tips.

Hi all, it’s been a while since I’ve updated the site with actual useful content. Thank you all who have contributed since the site has been running.

As you can imagine, there’s only so many tips and tricks for Leopard that I can document here. If you find something that isn’t on the site (search the site first) then register and post it! If you get the content from another site, be sure to reference that site.

With Snow Leopard on the way, we will be starting a whole new round of tips and tricks for Apple’s latest OS X gift!

Despite slowly running out of content, I have some exciting news for the site. I’ve started working on video’s for the already published posts, this means you’ll be able to follow me as I show you on video how to perform a tip or trick. As you can imagine, this will be a lengthy process. I’m confident I can get it done! Stay tuned
