Description Daniel Brodie 2004-07-02 01:12:16 UTC 
The move to workspace submenu currently contains a list of the workspaces. I
think it would be better/nicer/simpler to instead have the workspace preview
there such as seen when changing workspaces. The menu items can be layed out
using the gtk_menu_attach function.

This is just a gimped up mockup of what I mean, but it should look something
like that.

I'm open to this (though should probably get some usability team feedback before
deciding for sure), if someone wants to code it we can try it out and see how it
works.

-> ASSIGNED because I think I will work on this next, when my life gets a bit less busy and FUSA has its two major bugs sorted. This may take a month or so. Anyone wanting to take it in the meantime, feel free.

Its kind of like the Metisse "workspaces window menu". I like it.

bugzilla.gnome.org is being replaced by gitlab.gnome.org. We are closing all
old feature requests in Bugzilla which have not seen updates for many years.

If you still use metacity and if you are still requesting this feature in a currently supported version of GNOME (currently that would be 3.38), then please feel free to report it at https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/metacity/-/issues/

Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry it could not be implemented.
