Hello Friends,
One of the most frustrating things for me is to search something using spotlight like 'logging.properties' and then Finder comes up with a list of files all named 'logging.properties' but the window has no way to display in which folder each one of these files lie. Is there a way to make finder display the folder in which that particular search item lies?

Hover your mouse over the "hit" that Spotlight shows and press the COMMAND key. More tips here:
