I would like to be able to configure a shortcut that allows me to, for example, switch one workspace to the right by the shortcut <meta> + <scrollwheel-up>. I tried configuring this in the “Shortcuts” section of System Settings, but it didn’t appear to work.

    I was able to do it by right clicking the desktop > Configure Desktop and Wallpaper > Mouse Actions > Add Action and continue from there. This only works when you scroll on the actual desktop background, not over any windows/menus.

      Yeah, I’m aware of the scrolling on desktop backround feature. Unfortunately, this is not the functionality that I am looking for.

        Well, you can scroll through the desktops if you have that virtual desktop widget on your pannel. Or have you tried making a shortcut? In gnome, it’s meta+scroll wheel so maybe give that. Try

          I already have this.

          Yes, I have already tried that. It’s in the description of my post.
