Well, I don't think I did anything special to X11 ...
The behavior I got is just a very typical virtual desktop. As I switch
between virtual desktops, open windows alternate. Yes, this is nothing
but what virtual desktops should be, but the beta 1 in combination
with Space.app didn't do this.
My use of Dock: I set no magnification effect -- I don't like it.
Also, I virtually never put windows into the Dock. -- I miss the
"window shade" effect on OS 9. Windows flying away into the Dock are
no improvement. Instead, I always leave windows open and switch among
six virtual
I'm beginning to realize that there are many ways people want to use
virtual desktops - problematic, indeed. I was using the dock to "hide"
windows, since the behavior of bringing X11.app to the foreground from
the dock now shows all X11 windows - the 0.1 behavior showed none.
Agreed. At first it had promise. If you're in a Space virtual
window and dock a window, it docks/undocks fine. Leave it docked,
switch to another VW, then come back. I found the docked window(s)
had become undocked and couldn't be docked again without first
selecting then from the Windows menu, which genied them from the dock
to their already opened positions. Docking then worked. Once again,
I've left Space (;
The above comment is incorrect - it's not Space related, I'm seeing
this odd behavior in X11.app itself. Sometimes open windows cannot be
docked. Selecting them from the Windows menu de-genies them to their
currently opened location - they can then be docked again.
So I may try Space yet again (try 4!).
Nevertheless, my model would be to have Aqua virtual desktops *and* X11
virtual desktops ....
