The Dragbar
<font face=aircut3/12 color=#ffffff>
<p>
At the top of your screen, by default, you will notice a long bar you can
click. If you click and drag this bar on any desktop except the first, you
will notice you can drag your desktop around to expose desktops below it.
If you look along the top of your screen, you will notice a long thin bar that
looks something like the bar pictured below. This is called your Dragbar. It
gets its name from its primary purpose, which is dragging desktops around.
<br>
If
you are on any desktop except desktop 0, you can pick up and move that desktop
in another direction. _Desktops(desktops) documentation has more information
on how to change desktops. Once you have dragged a desktop down, you can
proceed to move windows between desktops this way, instead of using the
_pager(pager) .
<p>
This can be used to open up a gap between the current desktop and a desktop
below and then drag a window to the desktop below simply by moving the window
there.
<p>
In addition pressing the middle mouse button on this bar will bring up a menu
with a list of all windows - select a window to set the current focus to this
window. Pressing right mouse button will bring up a list of tasks sorted by
desktop - select one and you'll set the focus on that too.
You can also use the Dragbar to retreive windowlists. Use the middle mouse
button to retreive a windowlist, and the right mouse button for a
windowlist sorted by desktops.
