Hi all,
what is beginning to be quite annoying is working with different Desktops. I have different working groups organised on a desktop each. I often have OpenOffice Writer, Calc and Firefox open on various desktops. When I open up a link on Desktop 1 in Thunderbird, a window opens on the latest FireFox I used prevously; the one on the other desktop I used last. I have to hunt down in which desktop it opened by going to each desktop and activate it. This also happens when I open an OpenOffice document or calc file with konqueror. Closing all apps on the desktops before going to another desktop defeats the purpose of having different desktops - or have I missed the rational behind different desktops. Is it a bug or a feature?
We think alike. I have eight virtual desktops and each has a specific purpose.
Assuming you're using KDE:
Two things are available to help you realize this kind of organization:
1) You can move individual windows or all of a given application's windows to a different desktop either via the window's menu (right-click the window titlebar) or via a taskbar icon.
Does this work in KDE4?. It took me forever just to find the pager and how to set up multiple desktops in the dumbed down KDE4. -- ----------JSA--------- Sig line deleted for the humor impaired. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
