Overlooking this mischief, I have to say that the procedure of eliminating the icons from the desktops is quite simple: all the desktops and their icons are listed and all you have to do is un-check the desired boxes. Nevertheless, the application is in continuous development (version 1.1.3 is already out in beta 1 stage) and I am sure the developer will fix the problem as soon as possible. It seems that Cube Desktop can also customize the icons for each virtual screen, but the results of our testing on three different systems (Vista Basic, Vista Business and XP Home Edition) beg to differ as the icons were not eliminated from the desktops but simply moved to another location on the screen.
#Cube desktop software
So if you want a certain software to be available for all desktops all you have to do is minimize it to tray. The only element common to all virtual desktops is system tray which will preserve all tray minimized programs. The application supports different customization of each desktop in terms of wallpaper and icons displayed. Diving into the configuration of a menu will not make you face unintelligible options and everything is translated into Human so that any user can benefit from the same easy configuration.

#Cube desktop windows
It is similar to Windows Control Panel so there should be no problem handling it. I think this is the most resource economical application of this kind I've seen by now.Ĭube Desktop's Options panel displays all the options clearly and distinctively and there are no hidden settings to be made. On Vista it stabilized somewhere around 70MB while on XP RAM power was under 20MB. One of the greatest advantages standing out the moment you launch the application is the low computer resource usage. The application works on both Vista and XP, although there are differences you may want to consider (no live preview on the desktop is one of them). But there is an Options panel that allows configuring both the looks and the way the desktops behave on your computer. One can say that the interface is inexistent if you do not count the six virtual desktops it enriches your computer with.
#Cube desktop trial
Due to the restrictive use in trial version testing it may be a bit difficult for some users, so I suggest you read all the documentation before getting some action. Cube Desktop comes with a pricey tag reading 24.95 EUR (about $36) for Europe (anywhere outside Europe the price is $24.95) and a quite limited trial period of only one hour. Besides the space you are going to come up with from practically nowhere and the fact that you can have different applications opened on each of the virtual desktops, the rest depends all on details.

The importance of multiple desktops on a single monitor is futile to be mentioned as it is well known (plus it is very cool). True that this technology is much more advanced on other operating systems, but we have to work with what we are given. Multiple desktops is no longer news, even on Windows.
