DesktopCoral and Dexpot (and others)
« on: June 08, 2011, 08:28 AM »
Sorry for my English. DesktopCoral, this is the program that I have long sought. But there is a problem. DesktopCoral not want to work with Dexpot and other  virtual desktops. It work only on first desktop, not the others. Solution?

Can you elaborate more about what doesn't work? Maybe attach some screenshots?

From what I understand, this is the intended behaviour of Dexpot. By default, each application is only on a single virtual desktop.
But I think there is a Dexpot option to circunvent it. There should be an option to enable selected applications to work in all virtual desktops, I believe it is usually called to make an application "sticky".

Dexpot have similar option to start applications,when swtiching virtual deskops, but Сoral doesn't work correctly in other desktops. Coral exist in task manager, but not reserving space.
PS. Rocketdock works correctly in all virtual desktops, so....

Did you set Coral to work in all desktops?
If so, I can't explore this any further as I don't have access to a windows pc right now :(

I have the latest version of Dexpot and Desktop Coral still won't work after changing desktops. :(

It's worse than just only working on Desktop 1, after I change desktops it doesn't work at all.

Edit: Nevermind. Turns out I just needed to assign Desktop Coral to all my desktops, and then re-launch Desktop Coral. :)
