Hi, I added People as a 'thing' that can exist on the desktop in Conjure a few releases back, and there are a number of differing opinions on just how they...
I hope this isn't a double post, but I tried to reply before I joined and can't see it. I've thought about the osx circular slider and other UI knobs. It is...

... All the information you need to know about bottom bars is in the HIG: http://tinyurl.com/2etj9a It's right at the bottom so scroll down quite a way. I'd...
Ah. It looks like I should really be using a scope bar for the show all/show changes distinction, although my scope bar would be displayed all the time. I...

I have done some research of HFS+, and my concern is that all the extended attributes would noticeably slow file-system performance. I'm not saying it *would*,...

I'm almost certain extended attributes won't affect signed apps. Safari and Finder both add their own set of attributes to files and directories. In the realm...
