Useful MAC Apps and Hardware [Ongoing Updates]
-
hi Tom,
Links and file sizes are driving me nuts, so now I've remembered it only needs to work on a Mac.... like the app.
here's a reasonable quality version (with all my fumbling with a giant cursor!!!)
it's took me 7 secs to download and you can watch in full screen to see what's happening.
all the actions are SLOWED down, it's not as clunky in use...
sorry for the others, I'll take it down

REMOVED this one as well, too small, see two posts below for a full screen demo, link
I'll sort out a smaller one later...
john
edit: replaced the broken link... this should work -
"Filechute" is so awesome!
-
Me again,
here's the link to the app, It's slowed down at the moment because I added a load of extra steps and delays to show what's happening...have a play

Hi Guys,
When I was back in the Stone Age using Windows , I got very fond of a handy little utility called 'Meazure'. It was an on-line ruler.
Over the past couple of years I have come across a few similar Mac apps but none as good as Meazure until now!
PixelStick http://www.plumamazing.com/mac/pixelstick/ does the job very well. Check out the screencast on the site as it explains the in and outs.Meazure allowed me to open multiple rulers which was needed at times. To do this in PixelStick I have to 'copy' the app and make multiple pixelsticks.
It looks to be free or a pay if you like! If you find it useful please consider buying as it helps the developer to improve the app.
Mike
PS: For all the Win users that have a peek in here, the link to Meazure is http://www.cthing.com/Meazure.asp

Compress PDF Workflow 6.0
Apparently Apple removed this feature in Tiger! (How annoying! )
However after a little searching, I found this Automator script, that does a fab job- although a bit fiddly if you need to tweak it.

Note: Free Ruler is only available for Mac OS X. It may work on Mac OS 9, but this has not been tested. It most definitely will not work on your stupid Windows PC.
Actually, this app would be useful if it actually stayed on top!
-
Tom,
I find RulerX better http://homepage.mac.com/kyasu/soft/
and to keep things 'on top' I use

Hi Mike. I just tried that app, but it almost froze my computer.

Yep, and thanks

I've been doing a lot of research to write a ruby or applescript that lets me quickly view 2 or more models for various reasons, known only to Mac users ο£Ώ
however I just found this, downloaded and tested and it's great, Free trial and a whole $5 if you like it...
I;m still going to try and write my own SU specific plugin, but in the mean time...

recent acquisitions from the App Store:
MsgFiler: a Mail plugin that helps to move files.
Savings: personal finance
Radium: internet radio player
Contacts Cleaner: basically helps you keep your address book tidy and without duplicates
Cloud: allows you to share images, links, music, videos and files -
I can see great potential in this one especially for making transparent "flipbooks" in PNG format for overlaying on a sketchup model.

Hi Guys,
While looking for a simple 'one trick pony' app to simply crop pics I came across Kroper. It does just that and no more. Just drop the image in and 'krop it'. It can be downloaded here, http://www.macupdate.com/app/mac/35241/kroper Oh, and its free!
