    How to have more than one desktop!


    Hey Sythe,
    Welcom to my first guide.
    Ill be showing you how to have more than one dektop screen.
    I myself use this, mostly for hiding games at school. But it can be used for much more!

    Step 1:
    Go to http://keir.net/bosskey.html and click on the Download link:

    Step 2:
    Once downloaded, Extract the file.

    Step 3:
    Once extracted, Open the application and customize.

    To customize, click on whichever text box, and press 2 or more keys at once (eg. shift+Q), this will be the hotkey that you use for a certain window.
    Key:
    Blue: Customizing this option will chose a hotkey to return to your original/home screen.
    Red: Will switch between your current, and previous window.
    Green: Depending on which desktop number you select. The hotkey you choose will cause it to go to the desktop of that number. Allowing you to have up to 10 desktop screens.

    Step 4:
    [​IMG]
    After finalizing your preferences, click the OK button, highlited in red.
    If you'd like to close bosskey, then return to your original window, open up the application and click the X button at the top right corner of the application, shown in blue.


    Friendly criticism/help much appreciated as this is my first guide.
    Thanks.

    I always prefered blackbox, But there are other 'better' window managers out there that allow you to set up KDE or Gnome,..
