I have always moved the window to another workspace using ctrl+alt+shift+ArrowKey.

But now with Ubuntu 17.10 I can't do this. And the worse part is, alt+TAB is tabbing through all the windows not just the windows open in this workspace.

I have compiz, I have tweaktools, I have tested all combinations from its documents, I have asked in #ubuntu irc channel, nothing seems to be working.

  • I don't know about the `Alt+Tab` issue - however your key combination to move windows through workspaces can be altered and changed in the keyboard settings. It's originally `Super+Shift+PageUp/Down`. (Like @Pomsky mentioned in one of the answers) – denNorske Dec 12 '17 at 22:20

You can install this extension to enable this.

NOTE:

Before you install the extension, you will need to install the GNOME Shell integration for your web browser and you will need to install the chrome-gnome-shell package using sudo apt install chrome-gnome-shell

Then you need to flip the switch in the top right corner of this webpage.

To answer the first part: ctrl-alt-shift + up/down works, but left and right don't

You may use super+shift+page up/page down key combinations to move windows to workspace above/below (Source).

For the second part of the question see this: How do I make alt + tab cycle through individual windows only in current workspace in GNOME 3?

  • super key is windows key, but it doesn't move the windows. – senaps Dec 12 '17 at 21:28
  • @senaps Tough luck! Works fine for me. Also [official GNOME documentation](https://help.gnome.org/users/gnome-help/stable/shell-workspaces-movewindow.html.en) says it should work. – pomsky Dec 12 '17 at 21:35
