Jumping between full screens in Yosemite

fullscreenshortcut

I like having many full screens open (in the same ‘space’), but it bothers me that I have to press CMD+right twice to get from 1 to 3; it should be possible to jump directly to 3 with a shortcut like ctrl+3. Or is it?

PS. Sorry, I meant: can one jump between spaces within the same desktop?

Best Answer

Yes, you can certainly do so.

  • Go to Settings > Keyboard
  • From there select Shortcuts
  • Mission Control
  • Tick the boxes for the Desktops you want.

EDIT: One quick way to to move is to +tab to switch between open applications. Otherwise, you can submit feedback to Apple.

OS X 10.11 El Capitan will feature having a Split View which may be more convenient when rolled out.
