Currently i have 2 screens and i've activated the workspaces feature. When I switch to another workspace, the 2 screens switch the workspace and this isn't the behavior I want.

I want a Mac like workspace support where only the screen I focus switch the workspace.

How can I do this ?

    Have you looked at this thread? https://askubuntu.com/questions/21711/multiple-monitors-multiple-workspaces – graham Apr 25 '18 at 14:33
  • No i didn't found this thread, i'm going to read it. I only found on the web solutions to use the trackpad like mac to change workspace – Kpone Apr 30 '18 at 09:06

In Unity you can right click in the window you want to "pin" and select "Always on visible workspace".

In Gnome, using gnome-tweak-tool, in the Workspaces tab you can choose to activate "Workspaces on primary display only".

  • In KDE: Kmenu, System settings, Keyboard and Mouse, Global Keyboard Shortcuts, for KDE component select Kwin Scroll down click on Switch to Desktop 1 select Custom and click in the box right next to Custom. You can enter just about any key combo there. – José Castillo Lema May 12 '18 at 17:14
  • In my opinion the question Multiple monitors, multiple workspaces? is slightly different and is not exactly what @kpone is asking. – José Castillo Lema May 18 '18 at 16:40
