now Yosemite is a fantastic new release with a new interface big enhancements to our most popular apps and something all new we call continuity now I want to start with design OS 10 of course started with a bold design of aqua and over the years it's evolved to the refined look we all love today in Mavericks what with Yosemite we continue this evolution you know we started with the most fundamental controls focused always on clarity as well as utility we refined the toolbars and the window materials and the window constructions if you look at the window title bar you'll see how the use of translucent materials gives you a sense of place as you scroll your content now the same carefully crafted translucent materials are used in the sidebars so now your windows take on the personality of your desktop as you change your desktop picture your window adapts to reflect that personality in that temperature and that translucency also helps maintain a sense of depth and place as you move your windows over one another now we also use the same gorgeous translucent material for the dock and check out these beautifully crafted new icons so clean and yet so fundamentally still Mac and check out that trash can that is a gorgeous trash can you wouldn't believe how much time we spent crafting a trash can so we also focused on precise and consistent typography throughout so from the menus to the window chrome to application controls consistent and clear type now we know for our Pro users often they really want to focus on the center of the screen and not be distracted by bright menus and bright docks so we also introduced a dark mode so spotlight has always been super fast way to launch applications and find content local on your Mac and Yosemite is a great new interface so when you click on the magnifying glass and the toolbar you get a big field right in the middle of the display and if you just type a few characters you can launch an app just like that or type the name of a document and you get great search results in an inline preview it's really awesome now in addition to these sources local to your Mac we also tap into sources of information on the internet so for instance type a few characters in like Yosemite you can get news feed information from Wikipedia and even maps all at your fingertips let's launch an app I'm going to start here with mats and I want you to observe that as I scroll the content of the map the way that the title bar actually reacts its translucency in color to the content beneath its just really gorgeous I'm going to launch now another app calendar so calendar has a new look for a week view but also an all-new debut and you notice here on debut I have all of my meetings in the day right here on the left and on the right I get details about my appointments so for instance here two o'clock we have our executive karaoke outing that's going to be a big blast so it it's right there you you want to probably drop in on that if you get the chance so let's take a look now at messages so messages you see this use of the translucent sidebar material how it reacts subtly to the background it's really nice and how the contents of the title bar react as I scroll content underneath it's really cool I never next take a look at Notification Center so course i have my notifications here but i also have two day view so i can see my calendar at a glance my whether these are interacted so i can click get hourly weather clock interact with stocks for instance or even reminders so here I'm supposed to practice for a demo and I forgot to do that but it's too late now so we'll send that one on its way now of course I can edit these widgets as well just click the edit button down here and you see widgets available to me right here on the side these are all from apps that can export widgets so I'm just going to drag out calculator add that in here just like that or even a third-party widget let's drag one of those in ESPN sportscenter so right there I get all my information right at a glance so next spotlight so I'm going to click here on the magnifying glass and boom got a search field right in the middle of the screen can type just a couple of characters to launch an app like our new reminders there it is it's that easy but of course spotlight is great for looking at people too so I'm going to look up phil schiller here there's Phil and you see I have all of his contact information here but i also have matches on mail from Phil Phil and I are planning a camping trip he's a bit of a gear nut and has something he wants to try out on our trip we also have events and reminders so we have here that are meeting at the campsite and good i see that a jeff and johnny are both in on the trip as well and i'll tell you you you just have not had chili by the campfire till you've eaten it with one of Johnny's custom crafted aluminium spoons it's uh it's the diamond-cut chamfered edges that really make the experience so ah so i'm working on a document as well to help a plan our trip now there are a lot of waste of course to find documents but one way now is by app so this is a numbers document I type numbers and you see in addition to the app I get all my recent documents that I've opened with that app and I can access them right here so let's open up my hiking trip and here we see that the trip is planned to involve a 16-point four mile hike and you know being an operations professional jeff is a big stickler for the metric system and so fortunately spotlight has my back I can just type in 16.4 miles here and I get an instant conversion to kilometers so that's awfully handy we do all kinds of conversions I drop that in fix that document right well you know i'm looking to plan a dinner and maybe a movie out and now without even launching an app i can just do a look up for sushi for instance and we see i have maps results right here right inside of spotlight and of course in addition the map information we've got pictures great information from yelp so all right there and to wrap it up i want to go out to a movie you can just type in Godzilla here oh there we go Godzilla and you see I have showtimes for the where it's playing near me right here in spotlight as well as content I can stream from the itunes store all in spotlight that's a quick look at the new UI of Yosemite
