ohmymac

ohmymac is a menubar-only application, which is used to extend functionality of mac.

ohmymac is currently under development.

Features

Window

Design Philosophy

• When using MacBook, I will lose direction in multiple windows and spaces, Because window and Space switch logic is so complex. For Example, when I change to another space, I will forget the old windows when need to go back.

• So I need to remember the most recent windows (just record the order of the openning windows) globally.

  Basic Rule

  Condition	Action	Done
  When window unhide/activate	append applicatoin icon to menubar.	✅
  When window hide/close	remove application icon from menubar.	✅
  When click application icon on menubar	switch to last activated window.	✅
  When press Cmd+Tab	switch to last activated window.	✅
  When click applition icon with flag Opt	close the last activated window of the being clicked application.	✅

• How to work with the window features of ohmymac?

  1. Just use StageManager/Mission-Control/Dock to find your target application and window, but use ohmymac to find your the most recent activated window.
  2. FullScreen: You can set menubar always show, So you can use ohmymac to find window quicklly. (without Mission Control or dock)

Description

• You will find the most recent three windows in the menu bar.

  

• cmd+tab has been overwritten by ohmymac, when you press cmd+tab, the menubar will show a list of all windows, and it will hightlight the selected window.

  (In the fucture, you may be able to choose your custom shortcut instead of cmd+tab)

  

• When the mouse enters the menu bar area of ohmymac, the menu bar will show a list of all windows, and it will hide when the mouse exits.

Shortcut

• cmd+opt+g: To select some text, then call google search in little window. it works when in fullscreen, allowing you to avoid switching windows when you need to perform a Google search. You can close the window by pressing Cmd+W. You can open website in the google by pressing Cmd+O.

  

• double click opt: To translate a text and display it side-by-side, simply enter \space to close the window.

  

  ‼️ you must install a shortcut in mac, which named “apple-translator”, because this function relies on the internal Apple Translate feature, it doesn’t require an internet connection.

  

• opt+l / opt+; / opt+' / opt+m: adjust window size to small, middle, large, full.
