Excellent application. Goscreen has worked very well for me, but recently I have been experiencing some odd behavior. I have been unable to identify the source...

... If you open Explorer on one screen page, why is it visible on other screen pages? Have you put it into "keep visible" list? If so, how? In goscreen...
I have not added explorer to the "keep visible" list. Just in case I verified the configuration and it is not listed. What exaclty does "Protect Explorer" do?...

So, it is consistent.... I have never heard of anything like this. Is it possible you have some other window manager running at the same time? This...
Yes, I am using 5.2.0.61 I have not installed any other window managers, see nothing suspicious in the task list, and the issue survives a reboot. I agree this...

Well, this relocation - "upon request" - is by design. Goscreen does only very few things automatically. Still, it is possible to do this almost automatically...
Yes, I had read about that workaround. It has limited relevance as I use goscreen on a laptop that I rarely reboot, rather using suspend exclusively. Reboots...

I agree with the previous poster. I would also like a way to associate a particular program with a desktop, and have goScreen move it to that desktop when the...

Have you ever started an application that silently failed to start? You try start it, you see an hour-glass cursor for a moment, and then - nothing. It is the...
Yes, by all means, make it optional, and per application. That would be even better. I admit that this feature probably isn't suitable for the casual...

I could also use this second idea. (Automatically opening a particular application when a desktop starts.) The combination of automatically placing an...

Just because you only reboot your PC once or twice a month doesn't mean that the rest of us do. I have one power user who must reboot at least once a week,...

I have already done steps 1 and 2. (I used a command file.) I want to automate step 3. (Without having to ask goscreen to relocate the applications.) That...

I'm inclined to think that this talk of having goscreen manage applications' startup is well out of scope for what a utility like goscreen should do. It is a...
You do realize that if you already have a system for auto-starting your applications and rules that assign those applications to the desired goscreen virtual...
If my requests are so out of line, why do some of the other desktop management utilities have this feature? (ManageDesk and Multi User Desktop 2004 are two...
