Shortcut to create/remove desktop in Mac OSX 10.8

To switch desktops, one can use < CTRL >-i or < CTRL >-[< left >< right >]. Are there shortcuts to create and remove desktops? If not, how can I make them?


Solution 1:

I would use Automator's watch me function to record the keys and mouse actions needed to add a new screen.

Barring that, you'd need to hack the plist and restart finder or get third party MouseTools to help with UI automation.

See this post for those options:
