• Maybe I'm being thick but, like, when I'm searching for something with spotlight (using cmd+space), and I do find the file I am looking for - is there a way to actually do something with it, other than clicking on it (which opens it with the default application for the filetype)?
    I can't seem to right-click (option-click) or even get spotlight to tell me the path where the fucking file is located (usually I'd like to do one of these two things).
    Am I missing something?

  • Isn’t there a “view all in finder” option as in other OS X search places?

  • Holding cmd while a result is highlighted will show the path at the bottom. Return while still holding cmd will open the enclosing folder. Not sure there's anything more than that, however.

  • Command + click opens the file's parent folder. I agree that the lack of right-click options is baffling.
