As I turned my "world" on 90 °
Once I had nothing to do, I had one idea.
First, crazy - to tilt the laptop by 30 degrees to the right, maybe suddenly something will change;) But then, twenty minutes later another one came, which radically changed my web experience. Namely: “What if not for 30, but for all 90”. Tobish quite on his side to put it. I want to warn: owners of 30 ″ monitors or 10 ″ netbooks can easily read the next post. Then we turn on the head and remember that, like all brilliant ideas, this one came not to me alone. The screen of the first computer, with a revolutionary (at that time) graphical user interface, was, as you already guessed, exactly high, and not as wide as it is now (the biggest nightmare for me is to work with 1366x768 screens, 768 pixels high, which is ridiculous , I had so much on the first 14 ″ monitor). So, meet - Xerox Alto .
The same Ziroks Alto, from which Stevie Jobs licked the well-known Macintosh.
First I want to warn you that since the main system I have is the Snow Leopard, in the future all the examples will be in the context of this OS. Windows winners will be able to do absolutely everything by analogy , it is not difficult for linuksoids to fix the necessary xorg configs.
1) Go to System Preferences, hold down Command + Option and click on Display:
Select Rotation 90º and click Confirm.
By default, the screen rotates 90 degrees to the left. For me, as well as for the owners of real MacBooks, this is more convenient (all ports are on the left)
We are getting used to the new environment. Most normal sites are built with and for extensions less than 1000 pixels in length (very important given the popularity of iPad). Turning the screen 90 degrees, we absolutely do not lose anything. First, the screen contains much more text, pictures, information, and secondly, it’s more common for the human eye to read the text divided into small columns than a large text in length.
Finder literally transformed; reading Wikipedia is now a pleasure:
You need to get used to the vertical desktop, Dashboard, Expose and Spaces:
')
You can watch two videos at the same time:
Now for the cons. Although the Mac OS is known for its lushness and thoughtfulness, the system is not yet fully prepared for working with vertical displays. AyTyuns at the start warns immediately:
But despite this, nothing catastrophic happens to the window of this media monster:
Some GUI elements remain the same.
Yes, and do not always need more space in height. For example, for a photo, and films so watch some blasphemy :)
PS I have been on Habré for about three years, but just now I decided to write something. Please do not throw tomatoes;)
