Publisher's description of Default Folder X 4.0.3

Recently rated 5 mice by MacUser UK and 4.5 mice by Macworld, Default Folder X attaches a toolbar to your Open and Save dialogs in any OS X-native application. The toolbar gives you fast access to various folders and commands. You just click on the buttons to go to your favorite and recently used folders, manage the folders and files shown in the list, and make changes to your settings.

Default Folder also adds the ability to see zoomable previews in Open dialogs and to save Spotlight comments and set Finder labels for documents in the Save As dialog, while you're saving them.

Editor's review of Default Folder X 4.0.3

• "More file saving functionality"

• Reviewed by: Jason Parker

For all the wonderful things that OS X does, flipping through folders while opening and saving documents remains a hassle. This award-winning app attaches a toolbar to the side of all your Open and Save dialogs, providing quick access to multiple folders and commands. You can jump to favorite and recently used folders, or even manage files and folders right from the dialog (so you don't need to go to the Finder for simple tasks such as renaming and deleting). Default Folder also lets you assign hot keys and work with recent items right from the Dock. We're not crazy about the price, but this kind of smart, time-saving functionality is difficult to pass up.

  Version: Default Folder X 4.0.3

  "Very useful sometimes"

  by waldstille on April 13, 2008

  Pros: I find it invaluable to be able to save a document without having to wade through layers of menu each time.

  Cons: It would be useful to be able to return to the same folder a second time with just one click or a hotkey. I sometimes forget to define a folder as a 'favorite' the first time I save, and end up with a quite different folder the following time when I save. But perhaps the program offers more options than I am aware of.

  One of the things I most wish is for the computer or program to return to the file that originally contained a 'save-as' document. If I use a previous letter and modify it for present purposes, I want to save my new letter in the same file as the old letter, but somehow that seems always hard to do.
