Anybody notice how you can now get a contextual menu of an item in the Finder's column view without having the icon actually PREVIEWED?
Seems to result in much better responsiveness on slower machines and/or large video/PDF previews.
Nice.

Before 10.2.5 when you were in Column view, and you wanted to bring up a contextual menu on an item, it would slide over to the preview pane. This was a pain in the butt because the item you clicked on most often moved over and you had to click on it again. In 10.2.5 when you Control-Click on an item while in Column view, it doesn't bring up the preview pane.

I think I can do that since I can remember using Mac OS X... maybe even Public Beta...
For sure it was since Mac OS X 10.2.0.

I haven't installed 10.2.5 yet, and I can do that in 10.2.4. I guess you only just noticed it now.

I was about to cry...
I saw this topic and right clicked on ym desktop and my Right Click was onMouseUp not onMouseDown (ACK!!! WINDOWS-Y!) but it's all better now. (I was playing a DiVX movie of a southpark episode. Guess it was too much on my processor)
