Show only active windows in workspace

Workspace Setting

If I move Spotify or Gedit next workspace, it would still show me. I want to show those items only if I switch to the next workspace.

workspaces mutter 20.04

    This can be done with a hidden configuration setting. To have the dock only show windows of the current workspace, copy and paste following command in the terminal or in the run prompt you get when pressing Alt+F2:

    gsettings set org.gnome.shell.extensions.dash-to-dock isolate-workspaces true

    To revert to the default setting, issue the command

    gsettings reset org.gnome.shell.extensions.dash-to-dock isolate-workspaces
