For those who missed out on the contest and are wondering what this is all about, Stoplight is the winning app in our first iAnnoyance contest.

Andy and Joe have been hard at work fixing the bugs and improving Stoplight... and are now ready to introduce Stoplight 1.1. They've really set the bar high for future iAnnoyance winners.

Stoplight (which I always want to call Spotlight) is now a universal binary (it was previously Intel only) and should work with all classes of Cocoa apps. Make sure you're running the newest version of SIMBL while using it.

Thanks!

Enjoying Camino in full screen without worrying about it closing. Nice. I'd still like to see a feature that allows resizing of windows ala Windows style.

Takuro - the latter part will definitely be an upcoming iAnnoyance Challenge.

They mentioned an installer is there one in the works as I think thats the only downside - it isnt as easy to install as it could be.

i'd be happy if it did not need the SIMBL thing.

What does Stoplight do?

THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

erm, cool! but you called it Spotlight once there int he description

Thanks for the notice. Fixed.

Hi!

This works with iphoto?, This works fine me in Safari; but i can't force iphoto to "hide", not close, with the red button.

I use a ppc mac.

Nice app

Nice one mates

This is awesome. Is there a webpage for this? How can I be notified when new versions are out?

This and not being able to resize windows from all 4 corners of a window have been what's annoyed me the most on OS X. If you could create a script that would do this as well that would be awesome!

Hey loopit, welcome to the forum!

There's not a website for them yet, but we should have one shortly. Right now the best way to keep track of the app would be to subscribe to our RSS feed, or maybe even just this thread (which can be done at the top right of the page).

only beef that i have with stoplight is after having it installed for so long, i tried to shut down and restart my computer and wouldn't do it. once i deleted the stoplight hack bundle, it shut down fine. so i can't use it. for the record, i'm using a macbook

so how do i uninstall it?

gee thanks a lot! I was getting pissed with the zoom button in finder using some folders with large number of files.

Anyone can re-post this? The attachment in the firtst post is not working anymore...

Love the app. I've come over from Windows and adding the ability to maximise windows and close apps on exit is great but now I can't shut down my iMac! It just goes into a loop - it starts to shut down gets as far as the blue screen then the GUI pops back up. Restart doesn't work either. It's a nice app and I would really love to use it but I can't if it won't let me shut down my mac!

I recall this happening to me and i think it was a known issue - odd that there's nothing about it here. There's a setting you have to change in the pref pane - sorry i don't have better info than that. I had to redo my machine, and haven't got around to reinstalling this. I'm actually waiting for an update, but it doesn't look like the programmer(s) is maintaining it.

If you figure out what the setting is that needs to change, you should post back here.

Can Finder window be added to Stoplight?
