Hello to all.
Well I was wondering what exactly has happened to the spotlight window we used to have on the previous version. In case you had many results you had the choice to open a very organised spotlight window with separate areas for documents, pictures, emails and what not. You could easily watch a slideshow of the results in case of images with a press of a button.
Now what you get is a clunky finder window with all the search results just thrown in there.
Do you people know what I'm talking about? Is there any way we could get that window back? I'm pretty sure it's a no but I guess it doesn't hurt to ask.

In list and CoverFlow view you can sort by kind. You can start a slideshow by option-clicking the QuickLook button.
