ChromeOS Desks feature and its limitations
Raw
ChromeOS-Desks-limitations
Desks are not being synced across Chromebooks
Shelf (taskbar) can't be set/customized to only display open application icons from the same desk
Fixed in ChromeOS 89:
On Chrome session restore (e.g. after crash), restored windows are all being placed on the first desk (i.e. all other desks are empty)
"When you reboot, your windows will restore to their previous desks so your workflow isn’t interrupted." - https://www.google.com/chromebook/whatsnew/
Maximum amount of desks you can have is 4 (limit is hindering for categorizing)
Was increased to 8 (I still sometimes reach this limit)
