Workspace switching via mouse wheel – how?

Postby aelfinn on Mon Aug 06, 2012 6:03 pm

I’d like to be able to switch between workspaces by using a keyboard shortcut, such as Win-2, as was possible in Gnome 2. Also, desktop-based switching with your mouse wheel would be nice. Any chance I can do this with Cinnamon?

Ctrl+Alt+<arrow keyt> Looking under Keyboard > Shortcuts might have been quicker!
[Edit] your original post and add [SOLVED] once your question is resolved.

“The people are my God” stressing the factor determining man’s destiny lies within man not in anything outside man, and thereby defining man as the dominator and remoulder of the world.

Thanks, I remember having seen those options before, now. Putting all this stuff in lots of different places sure isn’t helping, though…

Any chance for mouse wheel–based switching?

With the Workspacer switcher applet installed - hover with your mouse and... well... turn the wheel.
