Idea #19616: Workspaces confusing for new users

bug This idea is a duplicate of Idea #93: Different wallpapers on different monitors/workspace.
Written by Vendaval the 4 May 09 at 03:21. Related project: Compiz. Status: New
Rationale
New users can sometimes be confused by the whole idea of workspaces, especially when all of the wallpapers look the same. To make it easier to tell that you've switched workspaces, the backgrounds should be different, and they should flow.

Solution #1: Wraparound Wallpapers
Written by Vendaval the 4 May 09 at 03:21.
With Compiz it's possible to put a different wallpaper on every workspace, so why isn't this used more to create a unified cube? A welcome wallpaper has been discussed, and having a simple welcome wallpaper could guide the user to the next workspace. Wallpapers could then come in sets, so applying a new wallpaper could give you a unified cube.
