It doesn't explain why I view a single photo in iPhoto and the two zoom states that the green button does are the last two I used and have nothing to do with the size of the content. Well, nice try, but it doesn't explain a lot of things. When the developer in all the above examples is Apple, and the logic takes so many words to explain, and after all that it still does not explain everything Apple does, the widget in question has long ago left the land of "intuitive and Mac-like." It doesn't explain why Preview does maximize, even when the actual size of the photo in pixels is not even close to the size of the display. It doesn't explain why web pages with no set page size won't maximize. They are listed in the User Interface Guidelines, but it is up to the developer to implement the features to comply with the UIGs. A Document editor will likely not close the app as it is much faster (with very little resource overhead) to keep the app open waiting until the user begins a new document.Īlso realize that these are not System defined behaviors. In accordance with the user interface guidelines, if the App has no reason to stay open without a document window, the app can close if the last document window is closed. The Close button closes the document window. I think the observation of the red button is correct if an app has one window it quits, if it has multiple windows the window closes but the app stays open. I can't defend iTunes and the debacle that is it's Zoom button. Mail is similar in that there are no line breaks in a message, so the smallest size is the full screen. If you tell TE to wrap to page, the zoom width will be only page width, not full screen. So, if you Zoom to the content state, the window will fill the screen. A line of text will stretch across the entire screen. The Zoom button toggles between a user state and the smallest size which will hold all of the content of the window. But, you have to understand the concept and what is being displayed. In iTunes 10, the green button is gray.Įxcept for iTunes, it is consistent.
In iTunes 9 and earlier, it will change the window mode.
In TextEdit, Mail, and others, it will maximize to full screen. In Safari and others, it will resize to content. The green resizes the window to and from the minimum size the program thinks it needs to beĪpple has no consistent rule for the green button it isn't worth trying to figure it out.
