I switched from Ubuntu 16.04 to 17.10.

Then, I found out that Workspace Grid can mimic my previous Unity 2x2 Workspace.

But there is a problem that is annoying me and I was not able to solve so far.

I start with two workspaces. To get a third one, I must have some software opened on the other two workspaces. And so on.

What I need is that my four workspaces will be always there, despite there is something opened or not.

Is there a way to this with Workspace Grid or some other extersion?

First install (GNOME) Tweaks by running 

sudo apt install gnome-tweak-tool

Then launch Tweaks and go to the "Workspaces" section. Select "Static Workspaces" instead of "Dynamic Workspaces" and set the "Number of Workspaces" to 4.
