I like Openbox (minimal), but there's one really annoying problem. Every now and then I accidentally toggle between Desktop1 and Desktop2. And I have no idea how to toggle back to Desktop1.
What is the shortcut I'm accidentally using?
Is there any way to disable multiple desktops? I will never use them on a laptop.
And yes, I tried searching for an answer, but I guess I did not choose good keywords.
Easiest way to toggle between virtual desktops is to scroll with mouse wheel anywhere on the desktop
If you have no wheel mouse....or you prefer to use keyboard combos.
Desktop = D
from D2 to D1
hold down Ctrl Alt and press the left arrow (<-)
It can be written as C + A + <-
If you are not sure where you are ....holding down C + A and continue to press the <- will take you to D1
Naturally doing C + A + -> swaps to D higher numbers.
I would never have guessed that the wheel caused it, which explains how I did it without knowing it. I use the wheel a lot to scroll.
Thanks for the replies, lami07 and aus9.
yeah I forgot to read your OP correctly

solution
sudo apt install obconf
obconf
then test it out using your wheel
a GUI (panel) will open
go down to desktops.....click on the minus sign until the number of desktops is 1
