Just a stupid question ... stupid, but I really don't know what to do ...
I have a file on my Desktop - called NONSENCE.sparseimage ... and I'd like to see ONLY its name - NONSENCE. There is no reason to display its long and boring extension ... I know what this file is and what to do with it ...
OK, I have tried the simpliest way - mark the file on desktop, press Cmd+I and I got information about it. Great, then I checked "box" marked "Hide extension" or something like that (I use different language for my Lion, so I can only estimate proper English terms for some commands - hope you understand what I mean) ....
OK, I checked this box - HIDE extension - and then .. nothing happened :-( The File is still on my Desktop, providing its full name a extension ... I tried the same trick for another type of file - like RTF but no success again. Briefly - checking or unchecking this box has no effect - or I did not see any ...
Please help me and advise what I am doing wrong .... Thanks in advance
