<p>If you use multiple Desktops (aka Spaces aka Virtual Desktops) in OS X Lion’s Mission Control, you can set apps to specific Desktops, all Desktops, or no specific Desktop at all. </p>

<ul>

<li>Right-click on the apps icon in the Dock</li>

<li>Navigate to Options, and then from the “Assign To” sub-menu select one of the three choices:</li>

<ul>

<li>All Desktops – the app will appear on all Desktops, without causing a switch </li>

<li>This Desktop – Desktop-specific, this will cause Desktops to switch when the app is selected</li>

<li>None – the default setting</li>

</ul>

</ul>

<p>The main difference with the choices is how apps interact within Mission Control, and whether or not they will automatically cause a Desktop switch based on their selection or not. </p>
