<title>Add a workspace</title>

 <p>In the <gui>Activities</gui> overview, move your cursor to the right-most side of the screen. A vertical panel will appear with your current workspaces plus an extra empty (having no open application windows on it) workspace.
 </p>
 <list>
 <item><p>
  To add a workspace, move an application window from an existing workspace onto the empty workspace in the right panel.  To do this, click on an application window in a workspace and drag and drop it onto the empty workspace.  This workspace now contains the window you dropped into it, and a new empty workspace should appear at the bottom of the workspace panel.
  </p></item>
  <item><p>
   To remove a workspace simply close all the window in it, or move the window onto a previous workspace.
   </p>

   </item>
</list>
  <note>
 <p>
 You can never remove the first workspace.
