[Bug 1767564] Re: Ubuntu 18.04 Workspaces only change on primary monitor
@ruediger.kupper It is still definitely present on 18.04. All apps open in the secondary monitor of all workspaces collapse onto the secondary monitor when the super key is pushed for the activity overview (but go back to their original workspaces when you push it again.) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1767564 Title: Ubuntu 18.04 Workspaces only change on primary monitor To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-shell/+bug/1767564/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

the tweak works fine for the original issue. but still, if you choose the option "Workspaces span displays", the Activities (and the hot corner) on the secondary display shows windows on all workspaces, not only the current one as expected. should I file a new bug for this? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1767564 Title: Ubuntu 18.04 Workspaces only change on primary monitor To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-shell/+bug/1767564/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Just to follow up on this issue. I just realized that if you install gnome-tweak tool [sudo apt install gnome-tweak-tool] you can actually choose between coherent or independent behavior of your multiple monitors across workspaces. Once installed, launch tweak and then click on workspaces. then choose " Workspaces span displays" (instead of the default choice "Workspaces on primary display only" !) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1767564 Title: Ubuntu 18.04 Workspaces only change on primary monitor To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-shell/+bug/1767564/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1767564] Re: Ubuntu 18.04 Workspaces only change on primary monitor
Totally agree with Bruce! I have two monitors. Let say I use LibreOffice on the left (primary) monitor and a reference manager on the right monitor. When I switch workspace (let say to do some programming) I don' t expect that the reference manager keeps appearing? This should be fixed. Or at least the possibility to have a coherence behavior of multiple monitors be an option. Please . Otherwise, Ubuntu is great (I just switch from OpenSUSE in which, by the way, multiple monitors switch coherently across workspaces) !! -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1767564 Title: Ubuntu 18.04 Workspaces only change on primary monitor To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-shell/+bug/1767564/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1767564] Re: Ubuntu 18.04 Workspaces only change on primary monitor
Throwing in my two bits, I have multiple monitors - they are my desktop. When I switch desktops I expect both to switch together. I see that Jim expected each to be independent - I could live with that too, but it's not the behavior I expect. My situation is a desktop with multiple monitors, not a laptop with an external monitor; that probably contributes to the way I look at it.
