The green Zoom button maximizes the window as large as it needs to be to display information

(i.e., makes it the optimized size). If you click on the Zoom button again, it will toggle back to

the size it was before. The yellow Minimize button shrinks the window and hides it in the

Dock; you must click on its icon in the Dock to see it again. The red Close button will close the

window.

The Action button in the Finder window is new to Panther. If you select an item and then click

on the Action button, you will be shown what is in the contextual menu for the file (in other

words, what you would see if you Control-Clicked or Right-Clicked your mouse on the file).

Apple felt that beginning users who aren’t used to contextual menus were missing these

options so they included this Action button to make it more apparent to the beginning user.

The Finder View Menu

To see your viewing options, go to the View menu in the Finder. You will notice the choices of

As Icon (Command + 1), As List (Command + 2), and As Columns (Command + 3). You can

also change the view by clicking on the icons in the Finder window. In order to define your view

further, select the Show View Options… (Command + J) from the View window in the Finder.

The View Options window is dynamic; in other words, the choices change based upon which

view you have chosen (i.e., Icon, List, or Column).

Figure 7: Finder View Menu

Column view was a new view that was introduced when OS X first came out. Column view

excels in showing the path and relationship of files to folders. A Forward and Back button in

the Finder window allows you to navigate through folders in Column view as if you were using

an Internet browser.
