| David, if you like, i can fix most of this for you! In the finder, go to View>Show status bar. That takes care of not seeing any info in your finder. Also, grab a copy of tinkertool, that allows you to set many things back to the way of snow leopard etc. As far as saving states, turn off restoring windows in the system prefs, that takes care of most of the annoying crap of apps and saving states. did you do a clean install of Lion? I saw a lot of what you see when i installed over snow leopard. A clean install is your best bet for any major system install. Too many files change to just upgrade IMHO. you scribbled: >> In my opinion, Lions appears more dumbed down and has many features taken from iOS that don't work very well on a desktop > BINGO! It truly was built for a consumer and not a pro. They put a bunch of safety nets to protect people from losing work, but it honestly just gets in the way and doesn't help at all. There are a bunch of small annoyances that have been implemented that bug the hell out of me. Simple things like not being able to see the remaining space on your disk in a finder window anymore. Gotta do a get info to see it now. Gonna stop myself here before falling down that rabbit hole. > > The only other thing I've noticed with AE is that the expression panel trips out too. It won't scroll to the bottom or top if your whole expression isn't showing to begin with when entering the edit area, but I'm pretty sure this isn't a Lion related thing. > > David Torno > Visual Effects Artist & Supervisor > http://www.ghosttownmedia.com > O: 213.739.2290 > C: 818.391.6060 -- <ericwood> Helium14 | www.helium14.com Design | Motion + Graphic www.helium14.com 'the next best thing to knowing something, is knowing where to find it' |
