@samhenrigold Just learned this trick today https://mastodon.social/@sandropennisi/112268681870145361

@samhenrigold If you double-click the corner or side of a window, it will extend what you double-clicked as far as it can go.

If you do this while holding Option, it will extend the opposite as well.

So if you do it + Option to a side or top, it will expand a window just horizontally or vertically to its full extent.

If you do it + Option to a corner, you can achieve the old "full screen" window size that existed before the modern full screen experience.

In Apple apps that edit files, you can hold alt/option in the "file" menu to reveal the "save as" option.

In general, alt-clicking things can lead to interesting results. For example, alt-clicking the wifi icon in the menu bar would reveal tons of useful details about your connection. Alt-clicking the sound icon would allow you to switch the audio input device. And so on.

@samhenrigold option clicking the rounded rectangle in the shape popover in iWork apps gives you a non-continuously curved rectangle in case you’re feeling crazy for 2009

Here's one, you can delete stuff from an open/save dialog box (or create a new folder if you're feeling frisky) by right-clicking in it.

Too lame? Here's another one:

You can drag and drop a file or folder in an open/save dialog box to jump to that specific item. Very handy.
