Keyboard Combo for 3D

Can someone kindly repost the keyboard combination for starting the 3D
desktop. I lost that message and cannot find any reference to it within
Vista Help! Or maybe I am not looking at the right place.

Regards and many thanks in advance.

Happy Fourth of July, folks!

Re: Keyboard Combo for 3D

You mean that Flip 3D view? If so it's WindowsKey+Tab. (The old flat view is
Alt+Tab, so just remember that Flip 3D is right next door ;-)

If you are talking about CTRL-ALT-F12 or whatever to turn glass on and off,
that has been disabled. It was just there for dev testing. WinKey+Tab does
Flip-3D if that is what you are looking for.

Thanks for the responses!

Thanks very much - Alan Simpson and Fat Bastard - that's what I was looking
for WinKey + Tab!

I will certainly play around with it once I get back to my machine later
this evening!

Regards and thanks again.

Cheers.

Re: Keyboard Combo for 3D

Also try Ctrl+Windows Key+Tab. This combination leaves you in 3D-Flip,
allowing you to use your scroll mouse, the arrow keys or the Tab key to
rotate them. Simply click the left mouse button or the Enter key to select
the window you want.
