Thanks a lot for this article. I’ve been a mac user for a while but couldn’t quite figure out what the Spaces function was for and how it could best be used. But having read this and looking back now, I can see several situations in which spaces would have been useful; e.g. I remember during exam and coursework period, having multiple documents open, browser windows, mail etc. all did clutter my desktop (and my concentration), and Spaces would have been ideal to deal with it.

So thanks again.

I’m new to mac, and trying to learn their cool features, but this one has me all confused. I have Chrome open in one space, but I can’t open it in any other spaces. What effect does adding it to the Application Assignments have? Also, the icons of minimized windows doesn’t change when I trade spaces. Sometimes, I want to click on a minimized window and have it open in my current space, and sometimes I want it to open in the space I have set aside for it - is this possible? What about if I open, say “System Preferences” - all it does now is gray my screen, and if I search through all the spaces, I might find it.

I think this article would be great, but please add what behavior is expected, and what the features in System Preferences => Exposé & Spaces mean. Thank you.
