In the same style as the previous one, provides quick access to the multitasking view, however, the selection is done with the mouse on an application or a virtual office.



ALT + CTRL + D

ALT + CTRL + F4

He will close the virtual desktop in use without confirmation. You switch immediately to the office of the previous list or on your current office there remains only him.

Finally, to move from one virtual desktop to another quickly and without using the multitasking view, use this combination with the left and right arrow keys.
