Public bug reported: By being implemented horizontally, the workspace selector is highly inefficient in pixel usage. The default of two is using an incredible amount of real estate given the amount of default applications. If it were vertical and on the right hand side, it would use far less total pixels for the same size viewport.
This creates an additional "problem" in that it also changes the orientation of the application scrolling from vertical to horizontal in order for it to even pretend to make sense. ** Affects: gnome-shell-extension-ubuntu-dock (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: dash-to-dock gnome gnome-shell gnome-shell-extension-ubuntu-dock jammy ubuntu-22.04 ui ** Description changed: By being implemented horizontally, the workspace selector is highly inefficient in pixel usage.
