Spin Through Toolbar View Options

Although many people never change their toolbars from the default settings, all standard toolbars on the Mac offer six states: icon only, text only, and icon and text, with all three coming in normal and small size. You can change them by choosing View > Customize Toolbar.

But there's a shortcut that makes it easier to check out each variant. Simply Command-click the toolbar lozenge at the upper right of a window, and the toolbar switches to the next view. Click it enough times, and you cycle back to the start.

Macworld Expo Pocket Show Guide Changed

Macworld Expo Pocket Show Guide Changed -- Last week, in "Macworld NYC 2000 Events," I recommended that users of Palm OS-based handhelds download a copy of Palmtop Publishing's Macworld Expo Pocket Show Guide last week. Unfortunately, in the short time between when I downloaded the guide and when that article was published, Palmtop Publishing had to change the guide entirely; it's now the Macworld City Guide and features hotel, restaurant, museum, and shopping information. Details about Macworld Expo itself are limited to party schedules and events at the Mac Publishing booth; the useful exhibitor lists and session schedules are sadly no longer present. [ACE]
