The OS X Lion's all good. Until you start realizing some hassle in the operating system recently released by Apple. This week I explained how to disable the Resume, a feature that causes the application to load your windows started from the point of sealing. If you want to further customize the new version of Mac OS to your own taste, I also have the suggestion of an application that will certainly help to make your machine less slow.
Tweaks Lion, now in its version 1.2, does just what the name suggests, within the operating system tweaks. Those minor optimizations that at the end of the day, can bring more productive or just relieve the performance of the Mac app is free to download from here (ZIP file).
Using the Lion Tweaks
Some applications are so simple they seem boring. The Lion is one of those tweaks with the interface that you see below.
Main Screen (and only) the Lion Tweaks
An option to enable or disable certain features of Apple's operating system. Nothing to make complicated settings or insert code to enable some special function. Using it is limited to clicking the buttons "yes" and "no. In this respect there is not much mystery - you only need to read the options and decide what to do.
As is usual with Apple's OS X, most of the changes that you make with the Lion Tweaks only takes effect after the current application, the Finder or the system itself is restarted. My advice is to change everything you want to change, and then send the Lion restart to see what worked the way it should.
I have marked "yes" on the following features:
Remove the animation window system (Windows Remove animation system).
Remove the Mail window animation (animation Remove Windows Mail).
Disable written correction (Disable Spelling Correction).
Get new list view in the Dock (new Stack Get a List View).
Disable summarizes for unique applications (Disable sums for a single app).
For now I did not need to mark "no" in item no.
New list view in the Dock
In the bargain, Lion Tweaks enables a new way to view lists in the Dock (the 4th item in the shopping list above). Once you have marked "yes" in this option, restart the Finder or the operating system. The next step is to choose one of these folders in the Dock and select "Display as Stack" and "Show content as: List" (available options by clicking the right mouse button).
It is so. Much more practical.
Thereafter, clicking on the folder, a balloon will appear translucent with all the files saved there. Lion displays the file icon and its name, which makes it easy to find the exact document that we both want.
The translucent balloon height changes as the number of items within the folder (in the example are a few items). And best of all, if too many items, just use the scroll to scroll the list up or down.
I found the feature very practical, rather than the icon view or the conventional cell, the point of having it adopted in all the folders that are on my Mac's Dock Use the comments to this article to tell if it was better (or not) with this change!
If the option to view folders already existed so I apologize. I only noticed it after using the Lion Tweaks.
