Om my task bar at the bottom of my screen I have 4 virtual screens available. I am not a programmer I cant imagine any situation where I would need that many. How do I remove 2 of the screens from the taskbar? Thanks in advance

antiXcontrolcentre->Edit icewm->Preferences

Change
WorkspaceNames=" 1"," 2"," 3"," 4" to

WorkspaceNames=" 1"," 2"

You'll need to restart icewm for it to take effect (In menu-logout-restart icewm)

anticapitalista, thank you for your reply. That was easy enough. I guess I really need to study that control center, lots of stuff there.

We also have an icewmcc coming soon. It will have some of the basic options for configuring icewm: taskbar options, workspace options, applet options, and some window movement options. It will eliminate some of the manual editing of the preferences file.
