I use Mixbus 32C, Renoise, Bitwig, synths, email client and web browser, all running at the same time. All in their respective desktop. I am using that principle since 15 years at it works nicely, at home and at work. At work I may have all consoles connecting to servers in one desktop, all consoles for local compiling/development work in another, emacs on its own full screen desktop. I always use the same keys to switch from one desktop to another. It takes a fraction of a second. No clutter. Many windows from a single app on the same desktop when there is no real need to have them, yes, clutter. I think that going this way is just making up for not thinking much about the UI in the first place, delegating part of the UI design to the user at run time on the account of flexibility. As far as it see it, not many applications are going that way. Maybe even, rare ? _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.linuxaudio.org/listinfo/linux-audio-user
