Can I Use "Workspaces in Gnome 3?


Can I Use "Workspaces in Gnome 3?

I've grown very fond of using them in previous versions.

I don't have Gnome 3 running on a machine right now (video hardware and driver issues on the machine that I have Wheezy on now) and am just wondering if I can have workspaces when I get it running.

Thanks,
JP.

Yes, Gnome 3 has workspaces; only thing is they work a bit different than they do in Gnome 2. You just have to move the pointer to the right border of the screen and they will appear there. Also, if I remember correctly, you can create as many of them as you wish dinamically, by dragging the windows to the workspace area that appears when you move the pointer to the right border of the screen.
