    Question using multiple home desktops help please?

    is it possible to have an instance of the same program, ie, chrome, open on different desktops?
    each time i try, it brings me back to desktop #1.

    i try and push shift, cntrl, alt and any combo but no love

    can i drag different windows to a different desktop?



    thanks!

    I suppose you are talking about doing this in Unity? Just middle-click the launcher icon if you want to open a new window of a program you already have open.

    ...and of course most programs have the option to open a new window in their File-menu as well...
