Dual monitor, Independent workspace












2















I searched this for a while but I cannot find a solution.



I am using Xubuntu 16.04 and Xfce 4.12.



When I plug a second monitor my workspace is expanded into the two monitors (this is the default behaviour). What I want instead is to display a different workspace in the second monitor (could be the rightmost workspace or any fixed workspace, both options would work fine for me).



Is this possible with Xfce or should I install another desktop environment?



Thanks in advance.
