Macos / / December 25, 2019
Evolutionary upgrade El Capitan - mostly work on the bugs prior Yosemite, which proved to be a step backwards if the judge system performance and speed. Untrained user is unlikely to immediately find 10 differences between the updated operating system: here they are small, but very, very helpful.
Split View
Let's start with the most obvious change, which has long been at the hearing of those who even slightly interested in news Apple world. IN el Capitan appeared Split View mode - the same as for the new iPad, and exists in Windows for years. Work with two applications on one screen, convenient and space scale a small black strip-slider.
It works quite simply. We run two applications that will work. Hold the green circle at the top left of the window of any application and select the area to the size where it is scaled. Similar functionality is available in Mission Control.
Drag the window to the desktop on any open in full screen mode, and both programs share the workspace.
The new Spotlight search
Its full functionality with a built-in search, cards of "Wikipedia", watching the weather and A video on YouTube is still the lot of the US or UK users (the full list of countries can be viewed on Apple website), But even with only local work in Spotlight, there are many features that you might not know.
Hidden music player, calculator, unit converter, and even search for files in natural language - these functions even in many respects repeat what is being offered YosemiteBut very few people know about them.
Launch of Dictation voice
This hidden feature El Capitan is located in the "Universal Access". In the tab "Dictation" you can select a phrase, after which the casting system begins to listen to the command.
In the default system, a lot of them is provided, but if you want the missing, you can create your own. We say "computer, switch to the" Notes "begin dictation" and dictate the text of a new note.
This is not of Siri, but do basic things when your hands are busy, in El Capitan is quite real. And the quality of Russian speech recognition in the days of Yosemite found to be excellent. By the way, dictating everything just called from any place on the system double pressing the Fn button.
new notes
Version for OS X in its functionality copies the entire mobile - the need for third-party solutions all reduced. There were check-lists and maps, photos, and text formatting, informative cards with links to web pages and sketches drawn in the iPhone or iPad.
An interesting feature that was left without attention from Apple side and users - Track flight status line. We add it to the note, or get in a mail message, and you are prompted to view the current status of the flight and the location of the aircraft on the map.
Superior Safari
Regular browser added three useful options. The new Safari can be clipped favorite pages as much as possible. The idea, of course, not new, but this solution is more convenient to bookmarks or reading lists, and the tab in this form takes up much less space.
From that first appeared - a convenient volume control on the tabs, is an excellent tool to combat annoying pages that automatically plays the music or video. If the tab that is playing, it is marked by an appropriate symbol indicator.
Pressing it mutes the sound of a particular page. In addition, the same icon is duplicated on the right side of the Safari address bar and controls a sound in all tabs. Long press opens up an additional list of all the pages where music is playing.
The reading came tuning mode. In an additional menu, which is hidden under the button "AA", you will find options for the substrate color, size and font family.
small improvements
- If you missed the cursor elozte finger on the trackpad as quickly as possible, and the cursor is proportional to the increase in size.
- Good news for Apple TV owners. Now, to play the video from Safari on the big screen, there is no need to stream the entire browser window. Instead, the function works with a particular roller.
- You can now hide and the top menu bar. "Key" To do this, check the corresponding section.
- Files can be deleted bypassing the Recycle Bin, just like in Windows. During this action corresponds to a combination of keys Alt + Cmd + Delete.
- The staffing Photos have the opportunity to edit the metadata of photos. Open the picture, press the Info button in the upper right corner, and select or change geopozitsiyu photos, add keywords and note the familiar faces.
