Desktop AreasDesktop areas allow you to keep a well organized system when you have many tasks to perform at one time. Just like adding a new desk when you have too much material to fit on one, desktop areas allow you to move to another area to launch more programs. GNOME is aware of desktop areas even though they are controlled by another software program called the 'window manager'. You can set the number of desktop areas within the configuration of the window manager you are using. If you are using the default window manager or your window manager has a graphical configuration tool you may be able to launch it from the Window Manager Capplet. You may read more about this Capplet in the section called Window Manager Capplet in the chapter called The GNOME Control Center
