** Also affects: gnome-control-center (Ubuntu)
Importance: Undecided
Status: New
** Description changed:
When the user does the following steps:
- Click with the right-button on the virtual desktop preview at the bottom
bar.
- Select "Preferences"
- - Change Colums to 4 (example, could be any value higher than 2)
+ - Change Columns to 4 (example, could be any value higher than 2)
Now the user wants to set the shortcut to switch to the new virtual
desktops (3 and 4).
The user does:
- System -> Preferences -> Keyboard Shortcuts
Go to section: "Window Management"
There is no option to set the shortcuts for desktops 3 and 4. Only for 1
and 2.
In my case, I've done the following:
- Open terminal
- type "gconf-editor"
- go to apps > metacity > general
- set num_workspaces to 4
I guess that this operation is not user-friendly.
When the user changes the number of virtual desktops, the shortcut support
for the new virtual desktops should automatically be added to the "Keyboard
Shortcuts".
