Firstly, welcome to leopardtricks.com going live, right now, this minute, this second, on the 30th of October 2007! *applaud*
Okay, we all know there’s some cool new features in Leopard that just blow our minds. One of them is “spaces”. Now the “spaces” concept has been around for years on other *nix based operating systems, especially in XF86. “Spaces” in Leopard basically allows you to setup virtual desktops that you can switch between. Kind of like having virtual monitors or displays plugged into your mac with applications sitting on each display!
Try it! Press F8 to start spaces (or Fn-F8). Boom! Neat huh? You can click on a space to start working within, and load apps as you desire. You can open spaces at any time.
Now for some neat tricks. Say you have apps in various spaces, and you want to bring all the apps into one single space. Activate spaces then press “C”. Instantly your apps collect into one space! cool. Or what about combining spaces and expose`? Activate spaces then press F9 (or Fn-F9) and bingo, you can view all applications at once, in each space, in one hit. Click on the app in whichever space you like to go directly to that application!
