![]() I can only assume there's a KPI somewhere in Microsoft HQ tracking how many times Edge is launched, and making that graph go up and to the right has become their number one corporate priority. Microsoft even had their own PDF viewing software with Windows 8, but instead of improving it to get their user experience one step closer to Apple's, they killed it off to make more people launch Edge by accident. Works in a pinch but it's deliberately shitty. It applies to the entire document instead of a single page, and it doesn't persist next time you open the file. What you can do is "Rotate View Clockwise" three times, way down at the bottom of the menu. Rotating a page is too powerful a feature for Adobe to not try and sell it to you. But when you click on one, it takes a second to think about it and then opens a popup to offer you a free 7-day trial of the Pro version. You can right click on a page and it's got "rotate" buttons up at the top. I can't stand when I have to deal with a PDF on Windows on my office computer where I have the free copy of Acrobat. I’m hoping that the post-Ive Apple - an Apple more comfortable with “pro” users and beauty in utility versus form - will try to fix that one… and bring back all the good Mission Control stuff from Snow Leopard (which IMO is the greatest OS ever released). There are so many other little macOS things that make it easier to work in the GUI - but on HN they’re all overshadowed by the big “wow window management on Mac is 90s unless you install an app” issue, which makes me sad. On Windows, I install Listary to get the same features On other OSs, this moves the file to the directory shown in the dialog, or does nothing. ![]() Last time I opened the Windows equivalent, it tried to sell me on Microsoft’s PDF-alike format… and asked me to connect Office365.Īnother tiny macOS feature I love is that you can drop a file icon on any Open or Save dialog to select the file in the dialog. Preview is one of those essential things that sets macOS apart from the other operating systems, and contributes to that “Mac has good UX” vibe. ![]()
