Image
hi guys. switched old os x 10.6 latest os x 10.10 did cause me trouble. after fiddling around system-settings getting better. workspace-auto-swoosh thing seems behave different 1 pain in a**! can turn whole thing on/off using code: code: defaults write com.apple.dock workspaces-auto-swoosh -bool no killall dock or code: defaults write com.apple.dock workspaces-auto-swoosh -bool yes killall dock now here comes thing: command turns off switchy-thing completely , not want. only want disable space switching on command-tab (cmd-tab) leave else! in days old snow leopard possible or default setting - don't remember. behavior did come handy if wanted switch app , open new app-window on desktop working. yosemite instead end having switch forth between desktops there… not call "smooth , -like workflow". btw: know - there similar post including solution above: command-tab apps in 1 space?
