Graphical Workspace Manager

Graphical Workspace Manager enables you to operate a workspace control panel. This panel displays a window containing a miniaturized picture of each workspace on the desktop. Workspaces may be created, deleted, renamed, tiled, or cascaded. Application windows may be moved (within or between workspaces), terminated, reduced to an icon, or maximized.
