More juicy in-depth Leopard screenshots of Spaces, Mail, Safari and more

At this point it seems like these websites are placing bets between each other to see who can get closest to an NDA violation without actually getting nailed with one. HardMac has posted the latest set of (non-blurry, properly grabbed) screenshots of some hitherto unforeseen areas of Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard, including the Spaces and Time machine system preference setup panes, Mail.app stationary and a photo browser (which might make these iTunes and iPhoto library browsers extinct), RSS feeds and setup, notes in Mail with todos and calendar settings, as well as exclusives of new Finder functionality (note the lack of brushed metal in the Smart Folder) and Preview features.

So far I'd have to say this is probably the most exciting set of screenshots as they are some of the most revealing of new features and abilities in Leopard. Er, I mean, a friend told me they look really great... check them out while they're still live boys and girls.

#12: AFAIK, you can't, but that's part of the point: you save a workflow if you're still more or less working on building/tweaking the action. You save it as a .app if it's more or less finished and ready to be run. You can still edit workflows saved as .apps; simply right click them and say 'open with Automator' or drag them onto Automator in the Dock. The idea is that the app can change the extension it's saved with to allow you to run it once it's ready for prime time.

So go ahead and save them as .app, and simply drag them onto Automator if you want to work on them again.

Hope this helps!

Apple legal has struck! It only took a few hours. Not bad.

I just tried out the photo browser tip. Since it saves as a .workflow, I can't get it to work as a Quicksilver trigger. I found that if I save it as an .app, I can access it through QS. Any tips on how to create QS triggers for a .workflow?

Leopard leaked on August 12th, sooner or later you guys are going to realize these screenshots are coming from pirated copies, and not people forced to abide by NDAs.

Those PDA/Cameraphone pictures you guys posted for, were originally posted on piratebay by someone who sucessfully installed a pirated copy of Leopard.

-When renaming a file, the selection now exclues the file extension.

-The file type's default application can now be selected directly in the contextual menu.


Both great additions that I will probably use daily.

#5: There's a *lot* more work that goes into an OS update than a few pretty new applications. A lot of the guts of the OS need to be written, tested, re-written and updated. Then Apple needs to test things out with the development community and receive feedback on the updates and improvements, and make more changes. The development community also needs time to update *their* apps for all the new changes, as many 3rd party apps in their present form will break on the new OS without having coding additions and changes made to them as well.

If Apple just released the new version point-blank right now, it would be a disaster. Customer service issues would run abound, and all sorts of problems would blow up in everyone's faces. A lot of preparation is involved here.
