Some cool MacBook Pro tips

by Larry Roth on Jul.31, 2006, under Apple

There is a helpful post from the folks at “The Authentic Fake” that has various MacBook Pro shortcuts. I found several I didn't know about. My favorite was:

10. Cool shortcut combo
To finish off, I’l give a cool (relatively) shurtcut combination. Clicking Control+Option+Command+8 will turn the screen in some sort of high contrast mode, but more like an X-ray screen![1]

Pretty cool!

Change your toolbar the easy way

Fintan Darragh posted a tip for a quick way to change the toolbar’s icons and text.
From the article:[1]

Secondly, and this is certainly a hidden feature within Mac OS X, when you Command-click on the top-right-hand button which appears in windows, you can set the toolbar’s icons and text to different sizes and combinations.

Well, he certainly is right about it being a hidden feature—I don’t think I would have stumbled across this functionality.
