http://web178.plainblack.net/tips http://web178.plainblack.net/tips/wow-effect2 Hi every one, Now, My sugestion is nowhere as brainy as some of you are sharing but I came across this recently and as I know that we all care about 3D and design and cool stuff, how does this grabs you? Open Sketchup or any other files or documents or applications but not the Finder on a Mac ( sorry window users ) and in the window you have on the top right the 3 buttons of which the middle one is yellow for diminishing the window back to the dock... Push the shift key while clicking on that button and let go.... WOW!!! this works better if the dock is set in pref. with the Genie set. I hope you enjoy this and don't feel that I lost your precious time,after all, it's not all about work.

Turn Mouse Middle Scroll Button's "Click" to : LightSwitch (up/on) Function 1: Button 3 Function 2: Expose - All Windows. As a mac user, I have come to rely on Expose - All Windows to quickly get to buried windows. Using SketchUp i s a larger portion of my day more recently, so I often have that button set to Button 3, vs., my preferred function the rest of the time. I'd love it if there was a one-click back and forth way to change this. Thank you. http://web178.plainblack.net/tips/mac-users---code---middle-mouse-button---sketchup--expose Thu, 07 Feb 2008 13:40:35 -0600 http://web178.plainblack.net/tips/plugins-from-the-sketchup-show-2 Hey all, we just launched the second episode of The Sketchup Show.
