Configure Keyboard Shortcuts for GNOME Workspace Switching
GNOME settings only allow you to configure the keyboard shortcuts to switch to workspaces 1-4. There are no options to add shortcuts to switch to any other workspaces. It’s possible to configure this by editing dconf
directly using gsettings
from the command line:
# replace range with whatever workspaces you want
$
for i in {5..6}; do gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.wm.keybindings switch-to-workspace-$i "['<Super>$i']"; done
dconf
is GNOME’s configuration system, and gsettings
is the frontend for dconf
. It’s essentially a key-value store of GNOME’s config. You can also configure the keyboard shortcuts for other settings that are not shown in GNOME settings with gsettings
.
