An extension has been posted on this list some time ago that offers something similar. In particular, it allows opening different apps on a fixed workspace, which is if it doesn't exist (think of it as a sort of devilspie). I'm using and loving it right now, with a configuration that sounds like: Chromium: Workspace 1 Evolution: Workspace 2 Rhythmbox: Workspace 3 GTG: Workspace 4 Those apps are autostarted when I log in, and the extension creates the four workspaces and places them accordingly to the settings. If you only need a fixed number of workspaces at startup you may modify it to suit your needs. If you are interested search the archive of the list for the extension. I can't remember the topic, but I think it was posted by Thomas Bouffon, if I am not mistaken. Hope this helps you, Alessandro _______________________________________________ gnome-shell-list mailing list gnome-shell-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gnome-shell-list
