Window clutter

[Hyperfast]

Hi,

Is there some sort of window management application where I can keep my Windows organized? It's hard to explain but I have the 24" monitor and I hate dragging windows all over the place to find the ones I'm looking for. Sometimes they end up on the right side of the dock, sometimes they are hidden behind other windows, sometimes they are nowhere to be found and I have no idea how they are closed. Does this make any sense?

I've tried Spaces and Sticky Windows but they don't seem to help that much. I need a better way to organize windows.

Any suggestions?

Use Expose. One key shows all open windows, on key hides all windows and shows the desktop, the final key shows all windows of the active application.

Agreed. Use them with hot corners as well.

Indeed, this is a good example of what Exposé is useful for. I'd attach the actions to convenient hotkeys, mouse buttons, and/or hot corners.

Spaces could help if you used it to organize different work spaces, if you work on multiple different projects at a time or want a separate space for work and one for casual browsing/IM/music/whatever. porn! hehe

when using photoshop or any program in general that is "spaced out", I find working in that program annoying when there are a bunch of windows visible in the background. So I set a new hot key combo in Spark to hide all other windows. works great

I assigned specific programs to open in specific Spaces 'desktops' so I always know where the programs will be when it is their turn to be used.
