MacOS – How to have more than one app in desktop space

keyboardmacosspacesterminal

Whenever I click on the maximize/full screen icon on any window, the app window is going to a new Desktop space. But this is kind of distracting because now I am not able to switch apps by doing the Command+ tab shortcut..

so How do I have more than one window in a desktop space..

Lets say I want eclipse,terminal and google chrome in a separate desktop space with the ability to see each app in full screen and the ability to switch between apps by doing the Command+ tab shortcut??

Can somebody help me on this?

I've just tested now and I'm able to do that (multiple full-screen applications and switching between them with Command + Tab), but it could very well be because I'm using TotalSpaces, an add-on that greatly improves the usability of Spaces.

Note that with OS X El Capitan and later you need to disable parts of System Integrity Protection (SIP) for it to work.
