I believe the reason the workspace switcher was implemented like this was so that you can left click and drag windows around - onto other workspaces.
Whilst this ability to arrange your windows is brilliant it's not very intuitive. It would be good if this click and drag behaviour could be retained, but a single left click also exited the switcher. I wonder if having the cursor change to a "four way arrow thingy" whilst in the workspace switcher would make the drag behaviour more intuitive? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/689731 Title: Workspace switcher launcher icon does not preview open applications or allow single click to new workspace -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
