Obsessive

[Whelk]

Anyone else find themselves always having one extra desktop workspace available with nothing on it so that at least one of the desktops can be nice and clean?

[yabbadabbadont]

No, not a panel. I do tend to keep an extra desktop available though... :D

[Whelk]

I meant a workspace, or desktop. Not sure how I slipped up and typed "panel" instead. Too much multitasking!

I leave workspace 6, 7, and 8 without a designated purpose.
1: Vimperator
2: Pidgin + Mitter
3: XChat
4: Thunar
5: Mutterator
9: urxvt

I always try to optimize it more to my taste and most orderly as possible, I would say is ideal

[jimi_hendrix]

i have 4...i will only use a max of 3 normally...but 4 makes a perfect compiz cube!

[cardinals_fan]

I have nine, and I fill them up as needed. I usually have several free.

I have two monitors and I hate how when you roll the scroll wheel it will send you to the other workspace...

How do I get rid of this, I only need and use one.

Depends on your window manager. In dwm, it's an option in config.h. In Xfce, it's under Workspace Settings. I'm not sure about anything else.

[phrostbyte]

Actually that's exactly what I have going on now. :D

anal much?

Why would you say that? I assume that zmjjmz uses a tiling WM or devilspie, which will automatically assign the workspaces for him.

right click your 2 little windows and select preferences. change it to 1.

I have 10 workspaces, and I don't think I can create any more than I have now. I only use about 3 or 4 on a regular basis, I like having all the things I'm focusing on (namely My browser, IRC client, IM window, and coding window) in the first workspace.

[sharon.gmc]

Yes, I have 2. Works perfectly well for me.

[spupy]

Yeah, the workspace named Beta feels lonely. Only thunderbird and liferea visit it from time to time. :)
