This is more of a useability question than a "GUI" question per se. I'm writing some duplicate file detection code. I'm filtering initially by filesize, and...
... First of all, I'd leave this as a choice to the user: speed or disk space ;-) That way, users can easily opt out (or opt in) for the speed increase in...
... I disagree: you are basically pushing the decision on the user because you can't solve it yourself. Having a "speed or disk" checkbox would imply to me...
... I'd have to verify whether updating attributes will modify the filemod date/app signatures etc, but I think those possible considerations, which hadn't...
... I'm not sure that extended attributes are intended as a sort of cache. Extended attributes are metadata. As such, they're copied, transmitted to other...
... I'd be really concerned about signed documents / packages - adding extended attributes might really break the seal of e.g. the Resources directory in an...
... In general, it shouldn't update mod date, but will invalidate app signatures. However, many NAS/networked volumes incorrectly will update the mod date...
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 agree that hashes are metadata, too, but I like Uli's suggestion of putting the data in Library/Caches. My hunch is that it wouldn't affect signed...
... My guess is it wouldn't break the signature, too, since otherwise things like e.g. backup, Finder comments, etc. would also break the signatures, since...
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...
Hi, I would like to be able to access (programmatically) system-provided versions of the traffic light icons used to denote Available/Idle/Away in iChat. I...
... I think Photoshop has a built-in layer style that lets you do all sorts of Aqua effects on arbitrary shapes. Cheers, -- Uli Kusterer "The Witnesses of...
... IIRC, it's +[IMService imageURLForStatus:] (or, available on Leopard, + [IMService imageNameForStatus:]). Note that this will give you the exact same icons...
... Hello - Oops, I accidentally replied to the original poster, not to the group. For the benefit of the group I'll repeat my answer. These images appear to...
Hi all, I am new for this mailing list and Mac development. I tried to find some stuff from previous list but I could not. So let me ask here. I want to learn...
... Well, depends on what you actually mean. -> OS X doesn't really have a publicly available themeing engine (though there's ShapeShifter if you want to use a...
... I interpreted ksc1213's usage of "custom UI" to mean general UI design, not custom non-standard controls, in which case the item above would be the only...
... Thanks for your replies and information. I will check links you taught me soon. (I cannot use network freely for a while because I just have moved to a new...

Hi guys I know a few of you may have come across YourView on the mac SB list, but we've had a rethink on the ease of use behind the product that has had an...
