Casement's drop shelf opens when you drag a file toward the top of the screen and shows share targets such as AirDrop, Mail, Messages and Notes. Drop the file on one and macOS's normal share sheet for that service appears. Move away without letting go and the shelf closes.
The usual way
Control-click or right-click a file, choose Share, then pick a service. It is several steps for something you may do many times a day.
The shelf
- Drag any file toward the top of the screen.
- The shelf opens under the menu bar.
- Drop the file on AirDrop, Mail, Messages, Notes, Photos or another target.
What shows up
The shelf offers the share services your Mac already has. Add or remove them in System Settings, Privacy & Security, Extensions, Sharing; see the share menu is missing apps.
Everyday uses
- AirDrop a photo to your phone: drag it up and drop on AirDrop.
- Attach a PDF to a new email: drop it on Mail.
- Send a file in a message: drop it on Messages.
- Save a screenshot into a note: drop it on Notes.
If the shelf does not open
Make sure you are dragging a file, that Accessibility is allowed for Casement and that you are moving toward the top edge of the screen. Dragging a window opens snap layouts instead.
