[QUOTE="pm-r, post: 1770614, member: 175845"] I have no idea about the OP's method, and I never even had or tried Yosemite, but you're quite correct about my image in #3, but maybe that's the point?? Maybe their Yosemite IS different as to window view prefs. Maybe it doesn't provide a view option, but I can't imagine the developers leaving out that option. But even macOS Sierra is able to show what the OP posted and no "Use as Default" option as some other view options show, as shown here: [I][B]Select Column view options: Change the text size, and whether to display icons and a preview column. All columns display your selected options.[/B][/I] [url]https://support.apple.com/kb/PH25361?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_QA[/url] What they probably need is one of the other options as shown there, and have the "Use as Default" option box. It seems they have the Finder window view set to "View as columns" and the "default" option is not available using it, and also *** they got the screenshot I would guess. - Patrick ====== [/QUOTE]
