Secrets Safari 8 address lines for OS X

"Safari" - a wonderful product. With each version acquiring new features, visually "apple" the browser is becoming easier and more concise. Get at least the address bar, which is the eighth version of the program has become a modest strip with a single button reloading the page - it includes several subtle functions with which to surf the web will be much more convenient.

Frankly, I am surprised that many familiar makovody I do not know the most interesting features of the address bar Safari 8. Yes, and specialized blogs in their general mass somehow bypassed this theme party. Well, except that mentioned about how to change the address bar to display the main website address at the full:

And now we go through the functions which for some reason dropped out of sight of many Mac users.

Quickly create bookmarks in any folder

You probably know ⊕ button, which appears when you hover the mouse cursor over the address line of 8 Safari. Perhaps even used it to add the current page to your reading list. But if you still have not tried to hold the button down for about a second - do it right now.

You see, there was a menu with a detailed "map" of your bookmarks directory, which is divided into "Favorites" (its contents appears each time you create a new tab, or when you activate the address bar), "bookmarks menu" and just "Bookmarks". Select the folder where you want to save a new bookmark, and simply click on the corresponding menu item ⊕ button.

On a note. If you select the location to save the new bookmark to hold down ⌥, Safari will remember that folder and make it the standard - instead of to the reading list.

Quick save web shortcuts in the address bar

In any case, remember that the Web shortcut - a file with the extension .webloc, which operates virtually as a tab, but you can store it in any folder on the internal or external hard drive. Such labels can be saved even in the Dock.

To use Safari 8 to create a web shortcut to the current web page, as before, you can drag the icon of the site from the address bar on the desktop in a file manager window, or in the Dock. The problem is that now the site's icon is visible only if you click on the address bar, as if to enter a new address.

You can do simple: Drag the same Makar already mentioned ⊕ button. In this case, it works exactly the same way as web icon.

A quick search on web sites from anywhere in the network

Honestly, I did not come up with so long as two or three words could describe this megafunction eighth "Safari". And the phrase "quick search websites" even knowing does not say how this thing is cool.

You may remember, used to be Safari extension for easy and quick search on specific sites - Inquisitor, Glims... The main charm of them was that you could only specify a particular Web resource, which your browser transmit a search query and displays search results as if you were to do this came to this site, click on a search box, enter a query and press button input. It saves time.

Safari Now he is able to work in the same way, and, in contrast to the third-party gadgets, "apple" browser itself determines the search string format for specific resources. You are required only once to go to the site and is often used only once to perform a standard search procedure (and that is not always necessary).

Now, in the address bar "Safari" is enough to enter only part of the name of the site and you are interested in a search query. For example, if I enter macradar ios 9, "Apple" the browser will show me the special command "search" of ios 9 "on macradar.ru». And no matter what site I have not been opened at this moment by this team, I immediately find myself on the search results page, "MakRadara" with a list of all the articles that mention iOS 9.

Likewise, I'm looking for a variety of information on so many sites I visit regularly: Google Images, YouTube, Amazon, Apple forums, Behance, multiple language versions of "Wikipedia», Fnd.io, IMDb, «kinopoisk" Lingvo dictionaries, "Multitran", "lurkmore" and several online stores. It is noteworthy that some sites Safari 8 provides a more detailed list of links where you can go directly. A striking example - the same "Wikipedia".

On a note. A list of sites, which Safari remembers for quick retrieval is stored in the program settings. In the "Search" is the "Enable quick search websites" next to it is a button "Manage Site". Click on it and view the list - all the excess can be easily removed. Although the next entry to the remote site Safari still remember it again. :)

Full reset web page

To double not get up, finally, to remind one more little trick about which someone might still do not know. Sometimes you need to fully reload the web page - from scratch, without using cached data. Just click in the address bar of Safari page reload button while holding down the key ⇧.
