Safari webpage snippets

firmansolutions · Nov 3, 2012, 07:39 AM

Hi,

I recall a feature of Safari from a couple of years ago that I would like to use again.

The idea was you could highlight and grab a section of a webpage (eg. a webcam window) and paste it to your desktop (or maybe the dashboard).

Is this still possible? Does anyone remember this?

cheers
Eric

Yep. Just right click on the website and choose "Open in Dashboard"

thanks for the tip. However, I cant seem to do that. Where would I need to click on the website?

I have tried selecting the output on the page and right clicking. also trick selecting the URL in the address bar and also tried right clicking the thumbnail of the image in Safari.

I am on OS X 10.8.2.

cheers
Eric
