Mac OS X 10.5.2 offers Automator fixes

Apple has been on a tear for the first two months of 2008, releasing over 20 software updates. What's been lacking, lately, is a descriptive explanation of the changes. While OS 10.5.2's description was pretty well documented, it wasn't exhaustive.

This silent treatment isn't universal -- thanks are due to Automator World for sharing a description of the undocumented changes in Automator, including
  • Show When Run issues
  • Tiger-based actions not working because of File-or-Folder typing
  • Tiger-based droplets not responding
  • Incorrect Find and Filter action results
If you're an Automator junkie, you should find these changes more than welcome.

Tip of the Day

F11 moves all your windows off the screen so you can quickly glance at your desktop. F10 shows you every open window in an application. F9 shows every open window for every application that isn't hidden or in the dock.
