Pin an application to a given desktop – Mac OS X Lion
I can see loots of people complaining regarding missing Spaces within Mac OS X Lion. They also complain regarding Mission Control and it’s missing features. One of them is executing an application at particular Desktop. In fact this is not quite true that this feature is not available. You can put given app to a particular Desktop by:
1. Click on application bar
2. Press Ctrl+# where # is your desired Desktop
3. Right click application’s icon within the dock and choose: “Options -> Assign to” – choose whichever Desktop you like.
Since now, your application will be executed at this Desktop.
Note! In order to add new desktop, start Misson Control and move you mouse near right-top corner. New “Desktop like” button will appear. Press it, and you will have new desktop added.
