Just a heads up, the current version for 10.10 has been impacting animation(s) for “Mission Control” since I’ve been running it. The animations are much slower and in some instances don’t activate. The only solution from narrowing down certain app’s, rebooting, uninstalling, cleaning out home and system /Library folders seems to be TotalSpaces related. I’ll look through Console for any logs that may light more on the matter, hope it’ll help.
Cheers!

There may be some problem with your installation of TotalSpaces2 - can you by any chance check in Console.app to see if there is any log entires there from TotalSpaces2 or Dock? - particularly when you try to activate the grid.
Okay. I got it worked out. I do not know what was wrong. I just did a complete uninstall of every associated file, rebooted, and re-installed. It works now. Thanks for helping.
Using HotKeys to transition between a Grid Layout (4 Spaces), the Notification Graphic on Desktop Change is not indicating the correct transition direction. Meaning if I am currently in the top left Space, and I move right, there is no indicator. If I move bottom I see it. It seems only right & left are not being displayed.
However the below only happens on moving spaces with HotKey:
If I’m in the top left (Space 1), and I go down… I see the Notification Graphic and gets to me to Space 3… All good.
If I go from side to side (example from top right (Space 1) to top left (Space 2) I don’t see the Notification Graphic with the arrow pointing to the right.
On another note, If I am in the Lower Left Space (3)… and Move Right I get to the Lower Right Space (4)…
However, if I am in Space 3 and go even one to the Left (which shouldn’t go to the Left anymore), I see Space 2, and move again to the left (I see Space 1)… and untill then in Space 1, the Space is locked from going Left any more.
I think the behaviour should remain Locked on Space 3 from going to the Left, especially when trying with unchecked Enable circulation.
None of this happens when I slide between spaces with 4 fingers, only when using HotKey.
OSX 10.10 (Retina iMac not sure if this makes any difference).
I’m wondering if you are triggering the system shortcut for moving left and right.
Look in System Preferences, Keyboard - Then under Shortcuts choose Mission Control from the left panel. What do you have set up in there for Move left a space and Move right a space?
There seems to be some sort of graphics resource leak regarding the Yosemite WindowServer…if I leave TotalSpaces on for 6+ days the WindowServer is constantly 70+%.
Let me know if this improves matters. I suspect that in Yosemite the windows server is spending some effort maintaining the Overview Grid when it isn’t showing.
Hello,
I am observing a behavior that I do not know how to fix. One of my spaces is the Parallels open in Full-Screen mode. I noticed that if I quit any application in any other Space (I have 8 spaces in total) the screen will jump the Parallels screen. Is there a way to prevent this behavior?
I don’t know how to prevent it - also I have heard of other strange behaviours with Parallels or other virtual machine software before, so I’m not super surprised.
It sounds very irritating though, and I’ll help if I can. However, the first question is, does it do it without TotalSpaces2 running? If it also does this with just using mission control, then I guess a support ticket with Parallels would be the way to go.
Hello,
You are correct. This issue is not related to TotalSpaces2 - I was able to reproduce this even after quitting the application. I tried to google this everywhere and I was not able to get any hits. To reproduce this problem one has to switch from the full-screed view of parallels to another space where he is quitting a different application application. Once that is happening the Space will automatically change to the full-screen one where windows is running. I tried the same experiment with other applications in full-screen mode and I am not able to reproduce this problem.
I will open a ticket with Parallels - let’s see how this goes.
I have been an OS X multiple desktop user for a very long time. I have tried so many different products and I was very unhappy when Apple came out with Spaces and later Mission Control.
I only mention this because TotalSpaces2 is such an incredible product and it has brought back so much of the fun and functionality I really loved. I cannot say enough great things about the product.
Hey Stephen,
I’ve experienced some problems the last two months or so. I’m on Mac OS 10.10.2
Sometimes when I get to the overview, I simply can’t click on the space I wan’t to go to.
This happens every now and then.
This is how I navigate between spaces:
Four finger swipe up -> Trigger my Overview Grid hotkey (which is alt + SHFIT + Space)
Click on the Space I want to go to.
Not sure why. When writing this response I’ve changed the “Overview Grid”-hotkey to see if that helps.
Here is a video showing the problem: http://pudge.se/1eFMw
