xfce 4.4.2: switch to desktop background ?

Hi,

Xfce 4.4.2: Is there some button to switch to desktop background without having to minimize all running apps ?

Gr,
Jo

I think (but am not sure) ctrl-alt-right arrow key advances to next desktop.  Ctrl-alt-left arrow key moves to previous desktop.  If you right-click the panel and add
a new item, one of the applets allow you to see multiple desktops - I forget which (was it "show desktop"???).

Thanks, but I found a nice panel plugin "hide windows and show desktop".

Preferences -> Window manager -> Keyboard -> Show desktop action - is more convenient way
