This application acts as an interface to have multiple desktops as it is in other commercial applications where you can swicth desktops (applications). Thus providing you more workspace to work and divide your work easily into parts. This application will prove useful if you are a user who has lots of windows open at a time. If you have any suggestions, comments or anything else just post it :)!

This is a well thought out utility. 5 balls from me. One tiny little suggestion. The "Desktop" in microsoft windows refers to the background screen. You are creating multiple "taskbars". With that said, Great Job! Looking forward to more.

Hi Peter, Thanks. I thought of what you said, you are right! I think i should use the CreateDesktop API to really create a new desktop! I tried with .Net but its kinda hard to get around with API in .Net! I will try my best to make a real Multiple Desktops. Bye :)

Thanx! Fine job.
Very useful: good interface, better coding. Keep up good work.
PS: Making desktop switching easier is a great improvement, System Tray is good, general keyboard shortcuts are even better. Also right-clicking on a desktop node could show a ContextMenu with a - for example - "Switch to this" Item instead of a tree level menu system.
Hope you win the contest.

Hi, no, i didn't take it from there...first of all, this is the frist time i am ever seeing that site. It had always been an idea to do something like this in vb 4 or 6...didn't have time and it would be a bit hard.

I think that this is a great idea. I would like to see a Systray icon with some right click option. Also it would be nice if you could click and drag apps from one desktop to another.
Anyway this is a really great program.
