While I find glancing from paper to screen many times less distracting
and faster than constantly switching workspaces.  The latter messes with
my short term memory which seems to be endemic at my age. Frustrating
even. I can recall what I did 70 years ago, but not 100% sure what I had
for breakfast.

Cheers, Gene Heskett, CET.

I have a second monitor where I keep a browser open with tabs for OS cheat sheet, wiki, and BOSL2. Also a tab for PrusaLink running my printer.

Thanks Bob.  If I had room for the 2nd monitor, that would be a nice
idea. And why do you need PrusaLink?  PrusaSlicer can export direct to
the printer.
