Mac 101: Make your Stickies see-through

Another great stickies trick: In almost any app that supports the services menu when you select text and choose Cmd-Shift-Y the selected text will automatically be pasted to a new sticky. This works even if stickies is not running. It's especially handy when working in a web form (like web mail) and you're afraid of losing all your typed text.

Too bad it only does one sticky at a time. I'd like to be able to hit all of them at once. Since I've got about 40 or so for various notes and lists.

I accidentally deleted Stickies from my OS, and have no Time Machine backup. Is there a way to get that program back short of reinstalling the OS? I have the leopard upgrade/tiger discs..

Or... you could install Afloat (For leopard) and make any window transparent.

Wizzao!!

Not really necessary to do it through the keyboard.
If you click on the Stickies app the option to do so is right there in the Window menu.

Just started using Stickies today and I personally think it's better then any other ToDo app, because it's right there in your face unlike Anxiety for example.

Thats it your getting removed from my RSS reader, pissing pay per post turd of a website.

Thanks for this. I didn't know you could do that with stickies. I don't use them too much (I use the dashboard sticky), but this might be useful in the future.
