10.5: Switch search locations via keyboard shortcut
Authored by: VesperDEM on Sat, May 17 2008 at 4:00PM PDT
If you look closely at the line just under the toolbar where the file list will be, you will see a subtle change from the first Command-F to the second Command-f.

The first Command-f shows:
Search: This Mac {folder you were in before the command-f} | Contents File Name

The second Command-f shows:
Search: This Mac {user folder name} | Contents File Name

That's the only change, when you first hit Command-f, if you "Computer" checked in your sidebar, you will see your Computer highlighted. This stays this way when you hit the Command-f a second time.

It's not obvious, but if you watch the window closely when you hit Command-f once then twice, you will see the difference.
