List View for Disk Images

This was really bugging me…here’s how to “set” list view for Mac Disk Images.

1. Open the “root level” view of the disk image – for me, it always opens in icon view. Then, select “Show View Options” from the View menu.

2. Check the “Always Open in Icon View” box. While leaving this dialog open, select “as List” from the View menu.

3. Uncheck the “Always Open in Icon View” box. It will instantly turn into “Always Open In List View”. Recheck this box immediately, then close dialog. This will make the setting stick.
