Hi

i have desktop 1 as standard and desktop 2 with different settings

i would like that when i start for example photoshop dexpot switch to desktop 2
and when i close photoshop dexpot switch to desktop 1 again , can i do it? i mean can Dexpot do it?

when the application is closed switch to another desktop , in my case number 1

i was able to start desktop 2 as soon i click on photoshop , but i was not able to create a rule to go back to desktop 1 as soon i close it

you'll need to use 'Configure Desktops > Start-up' to do so.

regarding your screenshot: this will run VLC when you switch from desktop 1 to 2 for example. You can't have Dexpot switch to a specific desktop when closing VLC.
