Your taskbar will be cluttered and it might be difficult for you to find/move between different programs. + +Workspaces come in handy in this situation. You can group applications in different workspaces. So, let’s say you have many programming-related applications opened. And you are also working on documentation. + +You can organize them in separate workspaces. Click and drag an application window and it should show the option for moving the application to a different workspace. + +This will ease your work in a more organized way and will save some time as well as frustration. + +Sounds good? Let me show you how to create workspaces in Linux Mint with [Cinnamon][1] and switch between them. + +### Create new workspaces + +Creating or accessing a workspace in Linux Mint is easy. Just press `CTRL + ALT+ UP`. It will show you a screen like the one below. + +Just click on the + sign on the right side to add a new workspace other than the default 4. + +![Workspace Overview in Linux Mint][2] + +The workspaces in Linux Mint are persistent. Once created, these workspaces will always be there, even after the next boot. + +### Switching between workspaces + +There are two ways to access the workspaces and switch between them. + +* Use Ctrl+Alt+Up arrow key and bring all the workspaces and then move between them using the arrow key or the mouse itself. +* Use the hot corner and move the mouse in the top left corner. + +By default, the Hot Corner feature is disabled in the latest releases of Linux Mint. + +To enable Hot Corner to switch between workspaces, you should go to the System Settings and select **Hot Corners** option. + +![Hot Corners Option in System Settings][3] + +Now, enable the top left corner by toggling the button. By default, this corner is dedicated to show all workspace (you can change that as well). + +![Show All Workspaces in Top Left Corner][4] + +You can now access the workspaces grid by hovering over the top left corner. + +Also, if you want, you can add new workspaces by pressing the **+** symbol on the right. Or rename existing workspaces by clicking on the name according to your need. + +![Workspace Overview Accessible from Top Left Corner][5] + +### Delete a workspace + +You can in fact create several workspaces by clicking the + sign. In case you want to delete a workspace, click on the **X** sign on the top right of a workspace while hovering over it. + +![Delete a Workspace][6] + +I hope this quick post helped you to create a workspace in Linux Mint. Do you use workspaces frequently? Let us know your views on workspaces.
