18.04 Cannot manage workspaces
I have a laptop with an extra screen attached (one which is shareable with my Mac via a little switch). Recently when I had had both screens attached to the laptop, I disconnected the external screen, leaving a couple of windows on there. I had extreme trouble moving these windows to the laptop screen, both in that same session and for some time later.
I decided to look into workspaces, and right clicked on the icon, whereupon the following message came up:
There was an error loading the preferences dialogue for Workspacebar:
Error: Requiring St, version none: Typelib file for namespace 'Clutter', version '2' not found
Stack trace:
@/home/james/.local/share/gnome-shell/extensions/workspace-bar@markbokil.com/prefs.js:6:7
_getExtensionPrefsModule@resource:///org/gnome/shell/extensionPrefs/main.js:75:13
wrapper@resource:///org/gnome/gjs/modules/_legacy.js:82:22

wrapper@resource:///org/gnome/gjs/modules/_legacy.js:82:22
main@resource:///org/gnome/shell/extensionPrefs/main.js:397:5
@:1:43
Can someone tell me what this means, and even more important, what I need to do about it. Is there a description that will tell me how to use workspaces? It's a fair while since I last used them.
Thanks in advance.
