    You just changed how I think about virtual screens. I feel like Khan being unloaded on by Kirk.

    I decided long ago that I liked the single monitor with multiple desktops. But in my head they have always been a line of desktops instead of a grid.

    Somewhere there is a mathematician who uses a hyper cube array of desktops…

      When I discovered it can be arranged in a grid, it made VDs so much more useful.

      Cause a line of the same amount of VDs (9)… Ugh, not fun haha

      Even though you can map each to a shortcut, it’s still tougher to use than a grid with directional shortcuts!

        How do you have your shortcuts set up for this? And if you don’t mind me asking, what desktop environment / window manager are you using?

          I am using KDE’s Plasma 6 as a DE with Wayland. The compositor (window managers are a Xorg thing) is KWin

          The shortcuts I use are Meta+Up/Down/Left/Right. I can’t remember if they’re default or if I set them this way.
