Missing button in Lion

[Guest]

Hello,

I have just installed Lion and there was a button on the top right of the finder, that hid all the menu buttons of the current program. Is there a hack i can use to get that back. It was great to save screen space when you only have a small screen!

Thanks

To my knowledge there is no way to get the button back. Use View -> Hide Toolbar (or Alt + Cmd + T) instead.

Go to the View Menu in Finder, and 'Hide Toolbar'

I think that's the same thing isn't it?

Same thing yes.

The shortcut button is just gone (good thing IMO, it looked ugly)

I'll hack something up for you with AppleScript, brb...

Here's the promised workaround.

Toggle Toolbar v1

The button on the top right (just one line below the usual place) toggles the toolbar off.

Made with Apple Script.

Feel free to download and pass it on!

Read the instructions presented in the disk image background or the Readme file.

It's semi-elegant, let me know what you think! :)
