Woooh! Good to know. Thank you.
By the way -- when it did work in DP1 -- I set up a keyboard shortcut of command+' (apostrophe/quotation key) to quickly hide and unhide the toolbar. It worked quite well.
Got a tip for us?

How did you get the macrumors website to be as wide as your screen? I have the "fluid" option turned on, and it's wider than the the "fixed" option, but it's still substantially narrower than my browser window.
is anyone getting problems of their system not booting up after installing the DP3 update?

Is there a way (in System Preferences perhaps) to set it so that the manu bar is always visible, even when an app is in "full screen"
Try the "fluid HD" at the bottom of the main page.
Yup, that did it, thanks. I can't imagine why Arn & Co. would put in a "fluid" *and* a "fluid HD" option. Everyone will either want it to be the fixed width, or to fill up their whole browser window, and no one will want that in-between option. Everyone who has it set to the middle-fluid setting are probably just unaware that there's another option that they would prefer more.
Agreed. I wanted it to fill up the whole browser window and didn't understand why the "Fluid" option was still "fixed". So yes, I now switched to "fluid hd" after this was pointed out.. Thanks.
People like change, I personally prefer the previous Login screen with the wallpaper on the back
It's not my favorite either. Not because of the grey, I actually like that, I just don't like the layout of the Apple logo and then the icon under it.
Very nice update however still a few bugs around you notice when using it.. quite a bit to go, but pretty stable.
right click menu for closed System Prefs still doesnt work and i really like that assign to desktop (spaces) menu is back in an app's dock menu.
new features that might not have been said:
- new boot screen before desktop/login screen which is a bit updated & modern
- you can now just click once on desktops in Mission Control to go to them
- esc exits full screen in most apps now, although a little slow and buggy in Safari
- no scroll over Dock icon now for recent items
- no holding Dock icon for app windows Exposé, but can still click Show All Windows in the Dock icon
- tabs show in Safari while in full screen

I saw the wallpapers. I now I wish I hadn't nuked it off partition 2.I know it's a small change, but I am loving these new wallpapers
Finally updated. Loving the new wallpapers. I usually use my three display wallpapers but changed each display to its own Lion pic. The beach one, sigh...
There are lots of little tweaks, from improvements in mission control to even the "Display" menubar icon (now it's the shape of the current display line and not the older ACD's from... four years ago ).
Still need to fix the "About This Mac" "Storage" info, most file types list as "Other" (oddly the previous build seemed fixed). Might be just me.
"Back to my Mac" now has its own Finder sidebar location in "Shared." Finally, "MobileBackups" is gone from the Finder sidebar.
Right clicking in a Finder window shows a new "Clean Up By" option.
Course Cut and Copy/Paste is still there, hopefully Apple won't pull it out of the GM build
Still not in love with the white Quicklook window, miss the black HUD.
... also, anyone know what this is in the bottom left hand corner (never noticed it before)?:
Lastly, Finder sidebar desperately needs color like Madonna seeking Susan... just saying'...
UPDATE: Safari is whacked for me. Keeps freezing with the reload or go back option, and for some reason my pics in this post aren't displaying on my end...

I am loving all these little changes and the beginning of iOS merger. Can't wait for Lion.

Gotta say, every time I see those square buttons in the dialogs, I'm a bit irritated. It looks like crap. I really hope they axe that.
