special virtual desktop wanted
« on: May 26, 2006, 02:20 PM »
Hi y'all

what I want to have~do are a selection of desktops with different shortcut icons on each

say

1 Graphics, Photo
2 Tools
3 Notes, Office stuff

ideally maybe to be able to change them with a hotkey

I've downloaded a couple of Virtual Desktopmanagers(?) but they seem to concentrate on people with 20 programmes open at the same time and each desktop shows progs from a particular group in the taskbar.
I think these programmes can possibly do what i want but the're complicated (Virtualdesktop) or Forums in German (Dexpot)
Just found VirDsktop forum so will try post there as well

But i wondering for what i want is there a) a way, or b) software anyone can recommend
thanks,
tom

Have you tried DM2 - it comes with virtual desktops and extra Explorer utils and is also free.
