hello..

Try increasing the number of "Workspaces" to 4 and try..

to do that right click on the square boxes on the right hand side bottom of your screen and click on preferences.. Then Workspace switcher preferences window will open up. Then increase the number of columns to 4. and then use the Cube function (CTRL+ALT+DRAG LEFT MOUSE = rotate cube)

Hope that helps
