10.5: Activate Spaces in Exposé mode with one keypress
Authored by: fmoosvi on Mon, Sep 29 2008 at 1:21AM PDT
Hey guys, I'm not sure if Apple changed something in later Leopard releases but the trick above doesn't work. if you have spaces first it opens spaces but doesn't turn expose on after. vice versa is true if you put exposes first in the apple script. I googled and put together this solution - your apple script would be simply:

tell application id "com.apple.exposelauncher" to launch
tell application id "com.apple.spaceslauncher" to launch
and that should work. Unfortunately, it's non-ideal as it does expose THEN spaces wheras you want spaces then expose for it to look nicer. Let me know if anyone discovers a better trick.
