Apples nya operativsystem till Mac, Lion, har autokorrigering av ord, inspirerad av iOS. Det kanske vissa uppskattar, men personligen får jag spader när operativsystemet gör om “pixlar” till “pillar” och delar på engelska ord som ska vara ihopskrivna för att jag faktiskt sitter och pillar (!) med kod.
Lyckligtvis är det lätt att fixa. (more…)
One of the new features in Lion is that apps can have a fullscreen mode that essentially gives them a dedicated Space of their own. This is really sweet in some apps, but others just won’t work. (more…)
There is no doubt that Lion has a lot in common with iOS and its home screens. These are the apps that I have on my first home screen in Launchpad, the new applications launcher introduced in Lion, on my writing computer (which is an 11″ MacBook Air by the way):

I expect this to change, but this is it right now. What’s on your home screen in the Launchpad?
I still miss Spaces, but as it turns out you can add more of them from Mission Control (thanks @jakob) using the plus sign in the top right, which will only appear if you hover that area or if you hold down the ALT key (thanks @jholmberg). Sneaky design move, Apple!
You can move apps between Spaces by dragging and dropping in Mission Control, or by right clicking on their icons in the Dock and use the Options menu. This is nice, but a way more cumbersome task than the previous solution with a dedicated options page where you easily assigned apps to specific Spaces.
You still can, but you must remember to never close a Space in Missions Control because then any assigned apps will open in whatever Space you’re in. Never closing Spaces solves everything, I guess but I would’ve liked a dedicated settings page for this, like we had in Snow Leaopard.
All that aside, I’m glad I was told about this feature. Spaces open and all is well. Check.
The latest operating system for Mac from Apple is called Lion. Apple talks less and less about “OS X” when they mention Lion, and the version number is usually missing (10.7 if you wanted to know) from any information. It just works, as Apple and their cohorts tend to say.
Is it perfect, this Lion-thingy?
No, Google tells me there are a ton of bugs. Nothing too crucial although it might depend on what you’re doing with your computer, so I urge you to research that before updating your OS. (more…)
