Title: [Tip] Switch desktops with a mouse swipe
Post by: Paul (Lead Developer) on March 01, 2026, 01:13:07 PM
If you use virtual desktops with Windows, you normally switch between them with the built-in Ctrl+Win+Left or Ctrl+Win+Right hotkeys. But with AlomWare Toolbox, there's a tweak in its Settings that lets you hold down the middle mouse button and then move your mouse left or right to switch desktops. It's very intuitive and much better than reaching for the keyboard to switch.

Very cool! I now use this tip as a kind of "boss key" so I can swipe to an empty desktop when I want to hide my windows. ;D
