I can't get by without this thing! It's quite configurable and everyone is impressed by the cube rotation transition effect.
The latest version includes my pet feature: the ability to move existing windows from one desktop to another. I frequently launch, do some work and then realize I need to separate and reorganize, moving one app off to the side, i.e. to another desktop.
My only gripe so far is there is no System Preferences pane. Here's what happened to me: Somehow the menu bar item for Desktop Manager disappeared. Normally I set all my preferences using that item's dropdown menu. Without it, I could no longer change anything. I fixed the problem by finding and deleting the preferences file below:
rm /Users/cbrown/Library/Preferences/net.sf.wsmanager.desktopmanager.plist
After restarting Desktop Manager, the menu bar item was back (and all my other prefs lost of course) and I was back in business.
