All of them used and still use workspaces. Compiz provides Viewports with similar functionality. It provides 4 Viewports per workspace i.e. 4 sides of a cube. I believe now that isn't a fixed number anymore, you can change that upto 26 if I recall correctly. Thus, what is happening is you have 4 workspaces * 4 viewports = 16 views. -- http://mm.glug-bom.org/mailman/listinfo/linuxers
