Plus many other function keys that are application dependent. I started with function keys in MS-DOS and Word Perfect since it came with a keyboard overlay.
I think the touch bar design is fine, but I doubt I would get enough value out it to make it useful enough to me while not making me regret losing physical function keys. They kept a 13" model with function keys, which is the size I prefer, so it will be fine into the future for me.
- wingerlang 10y agoF3 - In mac that's never used. But there is the CMD+? For searching menu pages. Not even sure what you're referring to with "find" though. F5 - CMD+R is standard in MAC. I haven't used F5 in years, and I just tried it (didn't work). F6 - Like TAB? F9 - Well there is something like this on F3 but I never used it. I can do this with hot corners in mac, way easier. F10 - Same like above F11 - Same like above F12 - Not sure, never used dashboard in osx. This being said, I am sad for the removal because I use the top row a lot for volume/playback/brightness/esc.
- Washuu 10y agoPress F3 in Firefox, it brings up the Find interface.(Search in page.) F5 does not work in Chrome or Safari, but works in nearly everything else I use. F6 - It is a tabbing functionality for application input boxes, but related Firefox and other applications with similar design. I actually have the top left corner set to do Expose all windows as well.
