I suppose... but why?

More desktops = more widgets = less battery.
Besides, four desktops provide plenty of space for everything!

There is a limit in the code for 4 desktops.

How are widgets affecting battery while in the background if coded properly?
(except maybe the amount of ram?)

4 desktops isn't enough for me at the moment
add contacts and widgets and apps shortcut -> you fill them up pretty quickly

i guess you haven't found Extras repo yet?

Modified hildon desktop (version 1.05) supports up to 9 desktop views. To add a view, use the commands (for example):
Code:
gconftool -s /apps/osso/hildon-desktop/views/5/bg-image -t string "/path/to/background.jpg"
gconftool -s  /apps/osso/hildon-desktop/views/active -t list --list-type int [1,2,3,4,5]
Still arranged in a cycle.

To install, see my signature.

Great work Matan! works perfectly

Does it seem possible to make it with up and down desktops in the future or is it not possible program wise..?

With the arrows, it should be easy. With touch screen dragging, I think it is a bit harder, but I am not going to try.

Lol yeah I've found it! Testing and devel too. I filled one screen with 10 of my most important contacts, one with calendar, ip widget and a grid of shortcuts. The other screens I filled with random widgets that I don't really use :P So I guess I could do with 2 desktops

But seriously, having 4 desktops is a great thing. I'm really angry with myself for not putting all of them to good use :P

Someone should write a GUI for this .

That's a pretty cool upgrade.
