Sizeable desktops

I just downloaded Dexpot 1.5.5 and so far it's working great.

I am wondering, is it possible to have sizeable desktop windows? In other words, I want to be able to see a virtual desktop within another desktop and possibly move windows around between desktops.

Is this possible and if so, how do I do it?

Thanks!

like the 'Desktop Preview' or 'Taskbar Pager'?

well, I took a look at the Desktop Preview and the Taskbar Pager and yea I see that we can move things between desktops.

However, I'd like to be able to see and use multiple desktops at once. Kind of like the "Full-screen preview" feature but actually being able to use the desktops.

sorry, you can't do that with Dexpot.

Are there any plans to implement such a feature? Basically emulating Mac OS X's Spaces and the full screen preview it has, which allows you to move windows between desktops. That would be a killer feature for me... not that this software doesn't already have enough killer features though.

moving windows around in full-screen preview mode is a quite different approach to what is meant by "actually being able to use the desktops". We're thinking about introducing the former with version 1.6.
