Graphical Workspace Manager

The 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, minimized, or maximized.
