Of course I know about pager. I just don't understand what you mean by:

What EXACTLY do you see from the previous desktop when you switch to another? The windows? The taskbar buttons? Both? Something other than that?

Just tried it- the taskbar button for Firefox (desktop 1) was still on the taskbar in desktop 2. However, I went into pager settings and couldn't find a way to change that.

I think that you should look at the taskbar settings, not the pager settings.

Good idea, but nothing there, either. Just panel size, alignment and visibility (Always visible/auto hide), Add Panel, Remove this Panel, and Add Widgets...

That looks like the panel settings, not the taskbar settings (I'm calling the thing with the buttons for each window the "taskbar", since I don't know the proper name).

Yes, Task Manager Settings does, in fact, have a check box for "Only show tasks from the current desktop"...

Right-click the taskbar, select "Task Manager Settings", then look under Filters on the General page.

So you tried the taskbar settings?

The pager doesn't really have anything to do with this - it just switches the desktops, it can't control how other programs (including the taskbar) get window information. Unless the designers of the desktop made the taskbar and pager strongly integrated together, which I doubt.
