One thing about me is that I like to give you lots of options. I try to do that by telling you about good software products. What you end up using is totally up to you. Another virtual desktop option is DesktopPlus 2.6, by DesktopPlus.
This program has some interesting features including the ability to have certain programs startup on certain desktops. During installation the program asks you about wanting different wallpaper for each desk, about wanting different icons, and so on. So, for example, I didn't want different wallpaper on each desktop so I just didn't make that selection. Works out very well and each user can customize the program to suit themselves.
You can have up to 9 virtual desktops, have programs that start automatically in each desktop, and have unique icons as well. DesktopPlus also remembers the size of windows and their positions on each desktop. That's a handy feature. On top of that it actually remembers precisely what you were doing the last time you were in a given desktop. So, it's maintaining your focus so when you go back to a desktop you're right where you were. Really slick.
Another thing I really liked is that it keeps program messages in the desktop where the program is. That's very handy because you don't have messages from other desktops popping up in the desktop you're working in. DesktopPlus offers lots of features and configurable options, and I always like that. So, if you're thinking about virtual desktops here's another program for you to look at. Nicely done.
