Another handy trick is to use the Option key as part of your "Keyboard switching" command key sequence. Then MF 6.1b9 will do an automatic set aside as you switch through the application layers, much like the old Switcher. Makes for a nice clean desktop! ------------------------------- ------------------------------- | Doug Dunlop \ | "We must think globally ... \ | Earth Observations Lab | | and act locally." | | University of Waterloo | | | | (519) 885-1211 x2689 | | I disclaim only what I must. | | dunlop@wateol.uwaterloo.ca / | / ------------------------------- ------------------------------- --
