A: No. If you know where you’re going (so to speak), you can just drag a window to the right or left until your arrow cursor is up against the edge of the screen. Hold it there for a second, and you’ll experience a breakthrough: the desktop that’s “waiting” in that direction slides onto the screen, and you’ve moved the dragged window into it.

Q: I have a really big screen, so I don’t like dragging windows between desktops. Is there a quicker way to do the same thing?

A: Just grab the window by its title bar as if you were going to move it, and press the keyboard shortcut for moving left or right in your desktop line-up (the defaults are Control-Left Arrow and Control-Right Arrow).

Q: When I want to delete multiple desktops, do I have to hover over one, wait for the close button, click it, and then hover over the next?

A: Isn’t it amazing a two-second delay seems so long? Get instant close buttons (the circled X) on every desktop in Mission Control by pressing the Option key, and then click away, keeping Option down for as long as you want the close buttons available.
