Ask support for switching workspace via mouse #215

Open sauntor opened 1 year ago

sauntor commented 1 year ago

Problem

When using mouse, not touch pad, there's no convenient way to switch workspace

Proposal

Maybe, the following may make sense:

  1. if pushing middle button to left/right, then switch to the left/right desktop

    it's wonderful if user installed app can rebind/override those key bindings

  2. or drag with both two mouse buttons?
  3. or scroll the wheel (maybe Shift/Ctrl as a modifier) to switch workspace

Prior Art (Optional)

No response

There are hot corners for switching workspaces in System Settings -> Desktop -> Multitasking.

It waste time for impatient, the user must moving the mouse to corners specifically ...
