<h1>Workspaces</h1>
<p>Workspaces are virtual desktops, complete with their own resolution, color depth and background. Up to 32 of these workspaces can be set from the <a href="preferences/screen.html">Screen</a> preferences.</p>

<a id="switching" name="switching">Switching workspaces</a></h2>
<p>You switch between workspaces by either clicking into the <a href="desktop-applets/workspaces.html">Workspaces applet</a> (which is seen in the above image) or by using the keyboard shortcut <span class="key">ALT</span> <span class="key">Fx</span>, where "x" is the workspace number. It's a good idea to arrange your workspaces in rows of four to mimick the layout of the <span class="key">Fx</span> keys on the keyboard.<br />
Also, clicking on an application or one of its windows in the Deskbar will send you to the workspace it's in.</p>
<p>Another very convenient way is to use <span class="key">CTRL</span> <span class="key">ALT</span> <span class="key"></span>/<span class="key"></span>/<span class="key"></span>/<span class="key"></span> to navigate spatially the rows/columns of the available workspaces. If you additionally hold down <span class="key">SHIFT</span>, the active window will move with you to the new workspace.</p>
<p>You can switch back and forth between two workspaces with <span class="key">ALT</span> <span class="key">`</span> (the actual key depends on the keymap you're using - it is the key below <span class="key">ESC</span>). Again, holding <span class="key">SHIFT</span> will take the active window with you.</p>
