how do you align icons to grid? i can align my icons nices and neatly on desktop 1 and 2 but on desktop 3 and 4, the icon stay exactly where i leave it so it became a mess. i read the quick start guide which say

Choose 'Settings' from the main menu. Go to 'Switching Desktops'. In 'Desktop icons', please click the button 'Advanced'. The option 'Align to grid' aligns your icons to a grid, but after a desktop switch.

but there is not such option. help?

also for example i am playing a movie in desktop 1, can the sound be automatically muted when i switch to desktop 2?

The align to grid option is per desktop. Switch to desktop 3, right-click on the desktop background and select "View > Align icons to grid". Do the same for desktop 4.

You can use "Configure Desktops > Start-up" together with the all-around useful NirCmd tool: add "nircmd.exe mutesysvolume 1" as a command for every entry of desktop 2 and "nircmd.exe mutesysvolume 0" for every exit.
