Suggestion: switch workspaces on desktop scroll #68

Closed klokop closed 1 year ago

I've been trying to find an extension that allows me to switch workspace by using the mouse scroll wheel on the desktop background. It used to be possible in an older Gnome version with the extension by github user brorlandi, but it stopped working a while back.

I just discovered this extension - It's the best one so far of the ones I've been using!

Would you add the 'desktop scroll' option to your extension?

Sorry, I don't think it's a good idea to add this feature to CHC-E, I don't even see any benefit over scrolling at the edge of the display..

Thanks for your reply! I think it's useful for large displays, when there's a lot of open windows, but some desktop background is visible. If you could use that space to scroll, it'd require less cursor travel.

I'm sure you know about the default Super+Scroll shortcut..
