Easier in Mojave

If you use your desktop as a dumping ground for files, you may often end up looking at a hideous mess – and standard view options in Finder can only

do so much. But with macOS Mojave, you can wrench order from chaos by using Desktop Stacks (≈-click on the desktop and choose Use Stacks).

Stacks automatically sort whatever’s on your desktop by kind, date or tag. Also, you can scrub through items, or click a stack to see what’s lurking within. Zero-effort tidying! You’ll find a tutorial dedicated to Stacks on page 36 of this issue.
