Concealed Intent is a simultaneous turn-based game of tactical space combat. Players control their ships in a fully 3D world - hunting down their enemies, just as they are being hunted themselves. In Concealed Intent you know your enemies are out there, but not exactly where, or even what they are.To defeat your enemies you need to devise a range of strategies to gain enough information to. Mac OS X has several amazing features that are hidden from the user. If you have been using Mac for a couple of years then, we are sure you would have stumbled across a few Mac hidden features. Many users are unaware of these secret Mac functions even after several years of using the Mac OS X.

It works in 10.3.9 as well. Seems to put the most recently-used (clicked) window at the front, with title bars in 'cascade' fashion, but not resizing the windows, just moving the title bar to the cascade position. How long has that been there I wonder. If it had been just 10.4 I'd have thought they were targeting the 'switchers' from Windows, but it's not so obvious.

But the option to kill all other tabs is mega!!!

Other day guy walked into my office.
'What's the exchange rate for the NTD?'
Aha! Dashboard.

Yes. If nobody did, there wouldn't be about a zillion widgets available for it.
I use about 3 or 4 regularly.

While the 'arrange in front' menu option doesn't appear in Omniweb (5.1b), there is an interesting 'option' that appears in the File... menu - 'Save as PDF'.
Very useful!
(I went and tried holding option down on a load of apps too... ;-))

I don't know. I've known Windows users who say this has been one of the weaknesses of MacOS. I know there are situations where I wish I could cascade a bunch of Windows. And my experience shows that the current active window is the one that ends up in front. But more testing is required.

Also, in the 'Window' menu item, 'Minimize' changes to 'Minimize All' which could be useful.

This doesn't work in Transmit 3.2 on my machine. The rest – fine. Just not in Transmit. Nor do any optional menu commands come to think of it.

It's not just the Window menu that has the option key feature.
Try the other menus in Finder and Safari.
You can empty the trash without the dialog.

This also seems to affect the 'apple'-menu where 'Reboot...' changes to 'Reboot' without the dots, the same goes with 'Shut down...' and 'Log out [username]...'. Also the 'Log out'-option changes it keyboard shortcut when holding down the alt-key.

for those of you not familiar with the ellipsis, in the menu, they mean that there will be a dialog box if you choose that item.
Therefore the choosing these items with the option key down will activate the command chosen with no user feed back.

The 'Arrange Windows in Front' command has been around in most previous versions of Mac OS X. It is not just limited to Tiger. Likewise the other options people are talking about: Reboot, Logout, etc., have also behaved differently with the option key held down. The general behavior of the option-key revealing hidden items in menus has been around since Mac OS 7 (for those programs that used the popular Mercutio MDEF) and the modification of behaviors with the option key held down has been an integral part of the Mac for as long as I can remember.

slur was here

You are right; option key has had the affect of providing an optional action ever since it appeared on the keyboard, but a) I'd never seen window cascade before - may not be new to tiger, but still faily new - and b) lots of people here have now been scurrying around their Mac UIs looking for other uses of it, so that can't be a bad thing.
:-)

Way to go! This hint is falling very short of its potential. :)
You can press and release the option key while a menu is open to see what changes. It works on right-click (context) menus as well, so you can right-click on a file in Finder, and use the option key to select 'Always Open With...' right from the menu.
In the Finder option-context-menu, you can also open the Inspector Window (which I'd never heard of before). This stays open, and always shows the properties of whatever file is currently selected.

Thanks for bringing up the CM aspect of this opt key behavior! I discovered that when ctrl-clicking a Safari link, and hitting opt, 'Download Linked File' becomes 'Download Linked File as...' allowing me to choose where to save each file. VERY USEFUL!! Now if only I could set this as the Safari's default behavior!

You can also hold down option while clicking the green resize button and the same cascading will occur :)

This is kind'a VERY OLD NEWS!
I can remember back to QuickTime Player 3 (or Movie Player 3 as I think it was called then), here you had tons of ALTERNATE OPTIONS becomming available in the menus when you held down the ALT/OPTION-key.
So the recent things that are 'brought to live' in Tiger actually has it's methods from almost a decade ago!!!

In addition to omniweb and transmit mentioned above, it doesn't work in firefox, Microsoft Word (so I'm assuming all of Office), subethaedit, pixadex, superduper, notetaker or iterm. It does work for the window menu of newsfire, iBiz and TextMate but not the file menu. The Adobe and Macromedia suites seem to use a different menu layout for their window menus so there isn't a bring all to front to change. *shrug*

It actually orders the windows alphabetically by title

No, this is very helpful! I use two monitors at work. When I come home, some of my windows are off-screen, and I can't get to them. The Gather Windows option in display preferences is disabled in single monitor mode for some annoying reason, so this option just saved me. In windows, you just hit alt-space and 'm' to move your windows manually, but you can't do anything like that on Mac. Thanks for this posting. I wouldn't have found it otherwise.
