That page ("Mac keyboard shortcuts”) lists Option-Command-F in its “Document shortcuts” section. It’s not a Finder behavior.
I can confirm on 4 different machines running Sierra; in Finder, the Option key has no effect on the functionality of Command-F for Find. It opens a Find window and places the cursor in the Spotlight field. If the Toolbar is hidden it will open a new window. If the Toolbar is showing it will use that same window. If “Open folders in tabs” is ticket in Finder preferences it will open a new tab. If the Option key _is_ having an effect on the behavior of Command-F on your system, you have some non-standard configuration. Two easy tests: - Create a new user account and log into that account. How does it behave? - Start the Mac in Safe Boot mode. How does it behave? -david On Apr 21, 2017, 7:28 AM -0700, Jean-Christophe Helary <jean.christophe.hel...@gmail.com>, wrote: > > > On Apr 21, 2017, at 21:20, @lbutlr <krem...@kreme.com> wrote: > > > > > > > > On 21 Apr 2017, at 05:01, Jean-Christophe Helary > > > <jean.christophe.hel...@gmail.com> wrote: > > > > > > > > > > On Apr 21, 2017, at 19:50, @lbutlr <krem...@kreme.com> wrote: > > > > > > > > > Cmd+F opens a new tab with a smart search. > > > > > > > > No it doesn’t. > > > > > > > > > Alt+Cmd+F just put the cursor in the search field. > > > > > > > > That’s what Command-F does on my machine. > > > > > > Ok, that's weird...
