Gnome: Keyboard shortcut to move to workspace 7 (or higher)
In Gnome I can have a fixed number of workspaces. As I have ten number keys, I have created ten workspaces. So I want Super+1 to switch to workspace 1, Super+2 to switch to workspace 2 and so on. I can acchieve this by running the following command for each workspace:
dconf write /org/gnome/desktop/wm/keybindings/switch-to-workspace-1 "['<Super>1']"
This works for all 10 workspaces.
Now, similar, I want to assign Super+Shift+1 to move the current window to workspace 1. So I tried the following command for each workspace:
dconf write /org/gnome/desktop/wm/keybindings/move-to-workspace-1 "['<Shift><Super>exclam']"
This works fine for workspaces 1-6. Starting with workspace 7, Super+Shift+7 or <Shift><Super>slash (German keyboard) does not trigger anything - though if I assign it to another action the keyboard shortcut works.
How can I enable the move-to-workspace keyboard shortcuts for workspaces with numbers greater than 6?
