The shelf itself isn't a 'folder' as such that can store things. That would be a... well: folder!
A description of the shelf from Howard's manual (p. 106) The shelf is a place for long term storage frequently used items. It’s like the Clipboard Storage, but it lasts across Quicksilver sessions. People use it for: email addresses, images, code fragments and templates, favorite hex colors, lo- rem ipsum text, passwords (though this isn’t secure), etc.. You can also put documents, folders and, applications on it and treat it like an alternate Dock. As for not being able to find things like iPhoto - make sure it's indexed in your catalog under the catalog preferences. Hopefully you can get it working :) On 12 April 2011 23:14, jimmynitcher <[email protected]> wrote: > Maybe I'm not using this correctly (on Leopard b59) - I added some > files and folders to the Shelf from my desktop, I then deleted the > items and now I get the question marks - makes me think it's making > aliases, but I thought the purpose was to actually move the items so > I'm confused - it won't even open a jpg without asking what app etc (I > tried typing iphoto and it couldn't find that!). > Not finding this helping my workflow at all at the mo!
