2011-08-13 Thread Chris Snyder
Hi folks, In lion, it doesn't seem like I can tell keyboard commander to make a command that will open a folder in finder. Did Apple remove the open finder item option in Keyboard Commander? Friendly, Chris -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups

Ricardo, The sidebar just provides a quick way to access a number of items at once. In other words, instead of having to hit command-shift -c for computer, etc. you can use the sidebar to get to connected devices, your home folder, etc. It really is a more visual tool, but is available with a
