Then you can see a list of currently open workspaces on the far right on the screen, where you can click to switch between them (and make an indecent-for-public comment on mouse-mileage of the desktop design). You don't get to have a predetermined number of 4 or 6 desktops. You start with one, and as soon as you open some app on that one, another empty one will be automatically created for you below that one, and so on. The next question you'll probably post will be "where is the shutdown option in the menu?", so let me save you the trouble and say that there isn't one. You can get it by pressing the ALT button on the keyboard once you open the menu. And of course, you can always forgive&forget&switch to XFCE, KDE or LXDE. ;-) HTH, :-) Marko -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
