If you are using kde, I can suggest a workaround, see if it works for you, though I believe if you look carefully at the documentation you can find a better solution My solution (not tried yet, you check if it works for you) create a script to start your application that you want to run on desktop four, swithc to dekstop 4, execute the app and return back to desktop 1, the following is suggested. ---------snip--------- /usr/bin/dcop kwin KWinInterface setCurrentDesktop 4 /path/to/wmpp /usr/bin/dcop kwin KWinInterface setCurrentDesktop 1 ---------snip--------- But again it may not work as expected, as there maybe other apps starting at the same time, and they may be left at desktop 4 before you switch back to desktop 1. Please check dcop calls to kdesktop and other kde apps, see if something better is there Cheers Ajay Pal Singh Atwal ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.
