10.5: Disable Space switching on Command-Tab in 10.5.2
Authored by: asmeurer on Feb 15, '08 10:43:07PM

This is no good. I want Spaces to switch when I want it to (Command-Tab, Control-Number) and not when I don't want it to (seemingly random sporadic space changing every time a program wants some attention). I have yet to see if this hint stops the latter. If it does, it might be worth sacrificing Command-Tab (I use program based assignments, not task based ones).

10.5: Disable Space switching on Command-Tab in 10.5.2

This does seem to disable ALL implicit space switching, user called or not. It renders Command-Tab useless, unless the program you want is already in the space you are in. In my case, every time I switch a space, I get iTunes as the front App, regardless of what App was in the front in the previous space.

Oh well. The whole idea behind Spaces in the first place was (at least partially) to make Exposé easier, so I will just use that instead of Command-Tab.
