shygye Posted October 10, 2009 Report Share Posted October 10, 2009 Unix computers have had multiple virtual desktops for over 20 years. You can add this feature to Vista or XP with this program, Virtual Dimension Indeed, using Virtual Dimension, you could have all your chat and irc windows on one virtual desktop; your email client and browser windows on another; and your text editor and debugger on a third one. This way, you only have what you need before you, yet you can easily switch to another desktop when you need to access the other applications...

soongmak Posted October 11, 2009 Report Share Posted October 11, 2009 I gave it a look. I think it will take some time to get used to it, but it might be very useful for people who take multitasking seriously! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
khunsanuk Posted October 11, 2009 Report Share Posted October 11, 2009 Hi, I compensate for this by having a large screen (24") with a high resolution (1680x1050), which gives me a lot of room to place different windows. Works for me. Sanuk! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soongmak Posted October 11, 2009 Report Share Posted October 11, 2009 I just ordered a 13 inch laptop. Not as much space as on your monitor, so this app probably will do just fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pom Michael Posted October 12, 2009 Report Share Posted October 12, 2009 July 9, 2005 Version 0.94 has been released. Check it out! Not been updated much has it? I had a similar program on my computer for a few days, ended up removing it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree, I used to sit at Sparc station with virtual desktops. One desktop for development, one for debug, one for test (TTCN), one for version management (ClearCase) and one for documentation. A single 24" screen won't hack this. Virtual desktops are great but you have to learn to use them to appreciate their real value. ALHOLK Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
