QuickView - Fullscreen?

no, i would like this too but you have to click the fullscreen button on the quick LOOK window. you could always make the quick look window a bit bigger as it retains its size.

 

This is a shame. Can't even add it in Keyboard preferences

 

Option-Spacebar

 

Doesn't work.

 

Doesn't work for me.

 

Try again. It's just worked for me with an mp3, a jpg, a pdf and a movie.

 

I did and for me it jumps to the first icon/item in the finder window.

 

Command option Y my friends.

Isn't the Option key the Apple key? If so, that keyboard shortcut normally just brings Spotlight up.

 

Just hit the spacebar.That works.

 

option is alt

command is the apple key

Thank you, that works

Not for full screen

 

Just tap the friggin spacebar.

You can also go right or left using the arrow keys.

 

I press the Option/Alt key first, then the spacebar, obviously with a file selected in any view.

 

So does that bring up fullscreen mode on your system.

 

Duh..I didn't see the "fullscreen" part..

Sorry..I'm just waking up.

 

No problem, it seems as if there is inconsistencies with the behavior.

 

Aha, that works. Thanks.

 

Okay guys, half an apology coming up. Seems it only works in smart folders (which is odd).

Select All Images smart folder - when you hold down the option key, the QuickLook button in the toolbar actually changes into a play button - now press the spacebar.

Please someone tell me it works for them

 

This works for me, also note that the cmd+alt+y works in smart folders as well.

 

old thread - i just found this useful full screenshortcut but the moving left/right doesn't work to view the next file.

EDIT: you have to select them all (cmd + A) first and then you get a cool thumbnail view. Shame there is the extra step but still a cool feature.

HOpe this tip helps more. Case closed.
