Cover Flow<br />

APPENDIX A WHAT’S NEW WITH LEOPARD 527<br />

The Finder has integrated a few new features from other Apple applications. The first one, Cover<br />

Flow, represents a whole new way of browsing your computer. Cover Flow lets you browse<br />

through the files of a directory visually by either showing an icon or a Quick Look preview of the<br />

actual file in the same way that iTunes allows you to browse through album covers. Within the<br />

Finder, Cover Flow will display previews of most file types it understands, including MS Office<br />

files, text files, PDFs, most image formats, and even HTML previews (where it will display the<br />

actual rendered web page complete with images and styles!). This ability makes Cover Flow ideal<br />

for identifying a specific file from a large collection where the file itself has specific visual elements.<br />

An example of Cover Flow used in a large collection of images is shown in Figure A-3.<br />

NOTE By default, selecting Show All from a Spotlight search will open all the search results in<br />

a Cover View window. This makes finding things from a Spotlight search even easier!

Hooray! Your file is uploaded and ready to be published.
