Can't move windows to another workspace anymore

  • 772

I have always moved the window to another workspace using ctrl+alt+shift+ArrowKey.

But now with Ubuntu 17.10 I can't do this. And the worse part is, alt+TAB is tabbing through all the windows not just the windows open in this workspace.

I have compiz, I have tweaktools, I have tested all combinations from its documents, I have asked in #ubuntu irc channel, nothing seems to be working.

  1. You can install this extension to enable this.

    NOTE:

    Before you install the extension, you will need to install the GNOME Shell integration for your web browser and you will need to install the chrome-gnome-shell package using sudo apt install chrome-gnome-shell

    Then you need to flip the switch in the top right corner of this webpage.

    To answer the first part: ctrl-alt-shift + up/down works, but left and right don't

  2. You may use super+shift+page up/page down key combinations to move windows to workspace above/below (Source).

    For the second part of the question see this: How do I make alt + tab cycle through individual windows only in current workspace in GNOME 3?
