Hi
If you mean using the f8 key or the spaces app, then yes dings is
all you'll get. To navigate spaces use ctrl and the arrow keys, they
move through the spaces rows and columns as you'd expect (up, down,
left, right). You don't need the spaces app or to press f8 for these
keys to work. Also, if you know what space you want to go to, ctrl
and the number will take you there. So, ctrl+2 goes to space 2, etc.
You can also enable a status menu item for spaces in system
preferences that will let you select spaces via the status menu,
i.e. the menu where battery state and the clock among other things
appear.
One thing to note about spaces is that command-tab will list all
applications regardless of what space they're in, and opening an
application's window on a different space will take you to that
space. So it's not a good way of segregating applications out of the
command-tab list at the moment, this is something I wish apple would
allow us to change. I do still use them though to separate
application windows that I won't need to see so that if I have to
use the mouse in a certain app, as sometimes happens, my screen is
much less cluttered. For instance, I have most windows on space 1, I
keep my IM and VOIP apps on space 2, any video conversion or other
batch processing apps on space 3, virtual machines on space 4, and
command-line apps on space 5.

Hi Jacob,
Thanks, I think this trick actually worked. But as of now I cannot
seem to be able to use spaces at all. I've added couple of
applications to different spaces, but when trying to navigate
within a particular space, I get dings and that's all.

Hey
Oops, forgot to mention that an actual mouse click has to be done
on that button, it's a pop-up button that isn't coded as a pop-up
button. So, put the voiceover cursor on it, route mouse to
voiceover with vo-command-f5, then do vo-shift-space for a click.
that will pull down the menu properly. If you ever encounter a
button that won't activate in any other situation this is probably
what it is. This isn't a Voiceover bug, but rather an unusual way
of implementing a pop up menu, as rather than being made as a pop-
up button it is a regular button control that pulls down a menu in
response specifically to a primary button click event and no other
events will trigger it including the default clicked event.

Hi Jacob,
OK, didn't click right away, apologies for that.
I was able to find the "add application binding" button but I
cannot activate it with either SPACE bar, ENTER key or with VO
+space, i.e. nothing happens when I try to activate this button.
Any ideas?

I don't see any "add application" binding. I only see "add row"
or "add column". Is this within Spaces itself inside the System
Preferences?
Thx,

Hi
To bind an application to a specific space, you want to press
the "add application binding" button.

Hello guys,
I tried this some time ago but either there is no answer to
this problem or I have missed your replies.
I am trying to set up several spaces. I figured out how to add/
remove spaces, but I cannot figure out how to add applications
to the space. Help says to press + or - to add/remove apps,
but nothing gets close to this description.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
V
