Is it possible to create a desktop icons that will change to the other desktops? I only have 2 desktops, and I want an icon on each desktop that when clicked will take me to the other desktop.

thanks

Hi,

make a new icon with target: "C:\Program Files\Dexpot\dexpot.exe" /w: 1
The number stands for the desktop you want to change to.

Now is there any way I can create an icon on just one desktop and not the other?

Sure,
you have to activate the function Customize desktop icons:

WOW!! This is nice!! Ok, one more question....

Is there a way to have a desktop become active after a period of idle time? If I'm on desktop1 and it goes idle for 10 mintes, I want the computer to automatically switch to desktop2. Is this possible?

thanks
Ray

You can change the desktop via Slideshow automatically in a time interval. But there is no function which does this after a period of idle time, sorry.
