Bind Application to Specific Space

One of the things that compel me to use Spaces, one of the new features in OS X 10.5 Leopard, is application binding. Application binding sets any given application to a specific space, so that it launches into it each time.

To set up application binding, launch System Preferences and select the “Exposé & Spaces” pane under the “Personal” heading. Switch over to the “Spaces” pane, and press the little plus button below the “Application Assignments” box. In the pop up, choose an application and select “Add.” Under the “Space” column, select which space the application is to be assigned to.

Now, whenever you attempt to launch a bound application, OS X will immediately shift to the assigned space and launch it there.

    You're right - this is great. Don't forget (as I did) that you can bind your fave things (like itunes) to all spaces - so you don't have to switch :D

    nice site for switchers,
