If you hide the toolbar in the OS X finder, you can get Spatial Finder back (!). When the toolbar is hidden, double-clicking folders springs them open to new windows, and folder windows remember their position after closing them.
If you turn on the Status Bar, when the toolbar is hidden, it hops up to the top of the window. Just like the old days. sniff
- copperx 9y agoSo, you're saying that some people navigate deep folder hierarchies by creating a window for every level? That's just so ... messy.
- rhencke 9y agoNot as messy as you might think! Holding down 'alt' while navigating causes the previous window to close as you go along. It makes keeping the windows that you'd like to go back to very easy, instead of having to just hit 'back' or 'up' a lot to get back to where you wanted to go.
- Doctor_Fegg 9y agoYep, I hide the toolbar all the time. But OS X has a habit of bringing it back randomly, often when you open a folder you've not visited before, or when you insert a removable volume. I wish there were a defaults switch I could use to kill it forever.
