I Love My Mac
geoffoliver - February 15, 2006
I just discovered yet another cool thing my Mac can do. You can drag items in Expose. Well, not really "in" Expose as much as through Expose. Check this.
Open a couple Finder windows. Get your screen really cluttered. Pick a file to move. Now, it would be a total pain to dig through all these windows and try to find which one you want to drag your file to. Ah, but the good folks at Apple thought of that. Start dragging whatever you want to move. While continuing to hold down the mouse button, hit F9 or whatever you have your Expose key set to. Now just drop your file on the window you're looking for! Seems to work like normal drag-n-drop operation too, so you can drag files into other applications (i.e. images into photoshop documents) as well as moving files around your drive(s). You are now free to move about your windows.
