However, many other familiar applications are suffering the same fate.

For example, if you still use the Rosetta-dependent Microsoft Office for Mac , it will not work in Lion Office and are Intel apps and should work fine. I just read today that numerous Freeverse games require Rosetta. Freeverse has no plans to update them. Here are just a few of the issues cited:. In the big picture, I think Apple is trying to move MacOS to a place in which the machine is shared by multiple collaboration-friendly apps so a user may switch freely and completely among multiple unrelated projects as necessary.

Unfortunately, Apple doesn't have power over 3rd party application developers, especially ones that I assume are still making significant profits from their old-concept "big" apps. That is, Apple believes that if we users want to organize a group of files on the desktop we should organize the original file icons in project-specific folders. Some apps arrange for their document icons to show document previews. Use the Finder feature to increase the size of icons in a particular folder, and this could really work.

It doesn't work so well for web links,. Maybe there's an alternative I haven't seen yet. In sum, I plan to try to go with this and see how it works, and --as I find often helps with new MacOS features-- I'll do my best to not overthink it.

May 31, PM. Deskovery is able to do the same in Lion. I have just installed I used windowshading in Tiger and Leopard but stop using it in Snow Leopard and now I'm happy rolling my windows again. Jul 6, AM. The Deskcovery product page claims "Spaces Support See your active workspace and switch to another one in one click and directly from your dock. It would be nice to discover that Deskcovery applies to Mission Control in Jul 10, PM.

First, I must say that I find "Wobbly Windows" and "Magnetic Windows" have completely undesirable effects on window dragging, and I eagerly disabled both in the preferenes. Second, windowshading works exactly as I expect it to work! That is, on all windows except Stickies.

In these cases, there's a bit of a glitch, not too serious. I think Deskovery should simply be disabled with respect to Stickies windows, if that is possible. The only function in Deskovery beyond windowshading I attempted to use is the "Workspace Switcher", but I never figured out how that works. Indicating either relevance only to At the moment, I've got a group of window-shaded documents in a group at the middle of my secondary display. Right now these are incoming emails and web pages.

In the cases where my correspondent used an informative subject line, and for all commercial web sites I can instantly identify the subject material.

So window-shading is working as I want and expect, as it did in The Old Days. Jul 27, PM. To get windowShading to work with Deskovery you have to enable a setting in Preferences. You said:. It isn't as slick as 'WindowShade X' used to be, but it usable, and as far as I know is the only useable way to shade windows, presently. Jan 28, PM. Jan 29, PM in response to rootscript In response to rootscript. I'll be looking for that double-click function as soon as I move to It is a minor addition, in my view, but relevant as I still have the reflex to double-click title bars.

But minimizing to the dock is, in my view, not very useful -- especially when the number of minimized items grows beyond a very few. In my previous posts above on this thread, I pretty much agreed with you on the functionality of Deskovery.

Yes, it seems to provide what I liked about the Unsanity product. At this point I'm on the fence about returning there, however. Apple User Interface UI designers seem to be pushing users in a different direction, and I'd like to give their ideas a good try.

It's happening gradually As for Stickies: The original windowshade function was almost certainly provided by the OS and thus generally available. I'm wondering if the current Stickies windowshading is implemented by the Stickies app itself. That makes sense if the UI folks are strongly against this function and allowing only this one special-case exception. Jan 29, PM. It more closely behaves like WindowShade than does Deskovey, at least in my experience with these two apps.

Feb 28, PM. I'd avoid WindowMizer. Poor customer service they swear at you and keep jacking the price up when you need a replacement because of OS upgrade. Not worth the aggravation. Nov 5, AM. I concur. I'm a Mac user since the first SE and have not enjoyed Apple's great failure to listen to we lowly consumers. The queston to me is, "What dolt decided to alter it in the first place?
