Press option + + 8

That sounds as though it would be very annoying if you didn't want it, but I can't resist trying it out. However, when I push +opt+8, nothing happens. Am I missing something?

Edit: Haha, nevermind. Just realized what the OP ment by "sliding around" I envisioned some kind of fancy eye candy, somewhat like an automated Expose.

Thanks,

I tried that, but I must be missing something, they still slide.

Well, what are you using? Are you using Leopard? Is it Spaces? If so, go into System Preferences and disable Spaces. It might be in your Dock too. If so, remove it from your dock.

Ok, try this. Hold ctrl while scrolling down. It sounds as though you may have activated Leopards (maybe it was in Tiger too?) zoom feature. It allows you to zoom in on the screen for closer viewing for whatever. If you hold ctrl while scrolling up, you zoom in, and visa versa when scrolling down.

Ah, it was spaces! I must of opened it as it was on the dock. I took it off there!! I am curious why you want that. I couldn't drag anything, like a file to mail, etc.

thanks!!
