Chrome 操作系统(Chrome OS)附带多项功能,可帮助Chromebook用户更高效地执行多项任务。例如,分屏功能(Split Screen functionality)可让您在并排设置中同时使用两个应用程序。然后是虚拟桌面(Virtual Desktops)(也称为Desks),该功能允许您在 Chromebook 中创建多个(Chromebook)Chromebook(Chromebooks)。
虚拟桌面(Desktops)允许您在专用工作站中组织相关的应用程序或活动,从而帮助最大限度地减少分心和混乱。例如,您可以创建一个专用于工作相关应用程序(Google Docs、Zoom等)的桌面,另一个用于娱乐相关活动(Netflix、游戏(Games)等)或社交媒体或即时消息应用程序。

目前,您最多可以在Chromebook(Chromebooks)上创建八个办公桌。如果您不熟悉使用虚拟桌面(Virtual Desktops),浏览多个应用程序、窗口和桌面可能会让人感到困惑或不知所措。在本指南中,我们将向您展示一些在Chromebook(Chromebook)上轻松切换办公桌的技巧。
复习:在Chromebook上创建(Chromebook)虚拟桌面(Virtual Desktops)
在Chromebook(Chromebooks)上创建虚拟桌面类似于打开新的浏览器选项卡或窗口。这非常简单,我们假设您已经知道如何操作。但如果你不这样做,这里有一点复习:按Shift + Search +Equal sign (=)。

如果您忘记了键盘快捷键,或者您的键盘出现故障,这里有另一种在 Chromebook 上创建虚拟桌面的方法:
1. 按键盘上的显示窗口(Show windows)或概览按钮。(Overview)
或者,用 3 根手指向上(或向下)滑动 Chromebook 的触摸板。这也将激活Overview Mode。
2. 单击Desk 1 旁边的plus (+) icon

3. 系统会提示您命名新的虚拟桌面。在对话框中键入自定义名称(Work、Research、Entertainment或任何描述性名称),然后按Enter继续。

如果您不输入自定义名称,Chrome 操作系统(Chrome OS)将根据桌面行中的顺序为桌面分配一个默认名称,例如Desk 2、Desk 3、Desk 4,直到Desk 8。
4. 最后,单击桌面的缩略图以访问虚拟桌面。
在虚拟桌面之间切换
在Chromebook(Chromebook)上的办公桌之间切换就像创建它们一样简单。我们在下面重点介绍了三种解决方法。
方法 1:从概览菜单(Method 1: From the Overview Menu)
按Show windows 键(Show windows key)并单击要切换到的桌面。您还可以使用键盘上的箭头键选择办公桌的缩略图,然后按Enter访问虚拟桌面。

要在Chromebook(Chromebook)上以平板电脑模式在办公桌之间切换,请从Chromebook屏幕底部向上滑动,当屏幕上出现活动窗口时松开手指,然后点击桌面的缩略图。
方法二:使用触控板手势(Method 2: Using Touchpad Gesture)
(Swipe 4)在 Chromebook 的触摸板上向左滑动 4根手指可切换到右侧最近的办公桌。相反,向右滑动 4 根手指可激活左侧的桌子。
方法 3:使用键盘快捷键(Method 3: Using Keyboard Shortcuts)
Chrome 操作系统(Chrome OS)有几个可提高工作效率的键盘快捷键,其中一些可让您在(keyboard shortcuts)Chromebook上的办公桌之间轻松切换。要切换到桌面行右侧的桌面,请按搜索(Search)(🔎) +右方括号(Right Squared Bracket)( ] ) 键。

如果您打开了多张桌子,请一直按这些键,直到您到达您喜欢的桌子。要移回办公桌(左侧),请使用搜索(Search )(🔎) +左方括号(Left Squared Bracket)( ] ) 快捷方式。

(Move)在Chromebook上(Chromebook)移动或重新排列虚拟桌面(Rearrange Virtual Desktops)
您可以更改虚拟桌面的顺序。这使您可以整齐地组织多个办公桌,以便于访问。假设(Say)您打开了 8 个虚拟桌面,您可以将工作相关的办公桌移到右侧,而休闲或娱乐相关的办公桌则留在左侧。
在概览模式(Overview Mode)中,点住一张桌子,然后将其拖动到您喜欢的位置。

在虚拟桌面之间(Windows Between Virtual Desktops)移动应用程序(Apps)或Windows
在Chrome OS(Chrome OS)上,有两种方法可以将应用程序从一个桌面移动到另一个桌面。您可以将应用程序拖到目标桌面,或使用键盘快捷键。
按显示窗口(Show windows)或概览(Overview)键并将应用程序/窗口拖动到您喜欢的虚拟桌面。

要使用键盘快捷键在桌面之间移动应用程序,请打开应用程序并按Shift +搜索(Search)+左方括号(Left Squared Bracket)( [ )。这会将应用程序/窗口移动到左侧的桌子上。要将应用程序移动到右侧的桌面,请按Shift +搜索(Search)+右方括号(Right Squared Bracket)( ] )。

查看(View)虚拟桌面中的所有窗口(Windows)
尽管您可以在概览(Overview)模式下查看所有活动的应用程序/窗口,但还有一个漂亮(也许更好)的替代方案。按Alt + Tab,您会看到所有办公桌上都打开了窗口。要查看当前桌面中的活动选项卡,请按住Alt + Tab,然后选择当前桌面(Current desk)。
关闭Chromebook上的虚拟桌面(Virtual Desktops)
要关闭桌面,请将光标悬停在桌面的缩略图上,然后单击右上角的x 图标(x icon)。

更重要的是:虚拟桌面是持久的(Desktops Are Persistent)

How to Switch Between Virtual Desktops (Desks) on Chromebook
Chrome OS ships with several features that help Chromeboоk users multitask more productively. The Split Screen functionality, for example, lets you work with two apps simultaneously in a side-by-side setup. Then there’s Virtual Desktops (also known as Desks), a feature that allows you to create multiple Chromebooks within your Chromebook.
Virtual Desktops help to minimize distraction and clutter by allowing you to organize related apps or activities in a dedicated workstation. For instance, you can create a desktop dedicated to work-related applications (Google Docs, Zoom, etc.) and another for entertainment-related activities (Netflix, Games, etc.) or social media or instant messaging apps.

Currently, you can create up to eight desks on your Chromebooks. If you’re new to using Virtual Desktops, navigating multiple apps, windows, and desks can get confusing or overwhelming. In this guide, we’ll show you some nifty tricks to easily switch between desks on Chromebook.
Refresher: Creating Virtual Desktops on Chromebook
Creating a virtual desktop on Chromebooks is similar to opening a new browser tab or window. It’s super easy and we’re assuming you already know how to do it. But if you don’t, here’s a little refresher: press Shift + Search + Equal sign (=).

Should you forget the keyboard shortcut, or perhaps your keyboard is faulty, here’s another way to create virtual desktops on Chromebooks:
1. Press the Show windows or Overview button on your keyboard.
Alternatively, swipe 3 fingers up (or down) your Chromebook’s touchpad. That’ll also activate the Overview Mode.
2. Click the plus (+) icon next to Desk 1 to create a new virtual desktop.

3. You’ll get a prompt to name the new virtual desktop. Type a custom name in the dialog box (Work, Research, Entertainment, or anything descriptive) and press Enter to proceed.

If you don’t enter a custom name, Chrome OS will assign the desktop a default name based on its sequence on the desktop row—e.g. Desk 2, Desk 3, Desk 4, up to Desk 8.
4. Finally, click on the desk’s thumbnail to access the virtual desktop.
Switch Between Virtual Desktops
Switching between your desks on Chromebook is just as easy as creating them. We highlight three ways to go about it below.
Method 1: From the Overview Menu
Press the Show windows key and click the desktop you want to switch to. You can also use the arrow keys on your keyboard to select a desk’s thumbnail and press Enter to access the virtual desktop.

To switch between desks in tablet mode on Chromebook, swipe up from the bottom of your Chromebook’s screen, release your finger when the active windows appear on the screen, then tap the desktop’s thumbnail.
Method 2: Using Touchpad Gesture
Swipe 4 fingers to the left on your Chromebook’s touchpad to switch to the nearest desk on the right. Conversely, swipe 4 fingers to the right to activate the desk on the left.
Method 3: Using Keyboard Shortcuts
Chrome OS has several productivity-enhancing keyboard shortcuts, some of which allow you to easily switch between desks on Chromebook. To switch to a desk on the right-hand side of the desktop row, press the Search (🔎) + Right Squared Bracket ( ] ) keys.

If you have multiple desks opened, keep pressing these keys until you land on your preferred desk. To move back to a desk (on the left), use the Search (🔎) + Left Squared Bracket ( ] ) shortcut.

Move or Rearrange Virtual Desktops on Chromebook
You can change the sequence of your virtual desktops. That allows you to neatly organize multiple desks for easy accessibility. Say you have 8 virtual desktops opened, you can move work-related desks to the right while casual or entertainment-related desks stay on the left.
In Overview Mode, tap and hold a desk, then drag it to your preferred position.

Moving Apps or Windows Between Virtual Desktops
There are two ways to move applications from one desktop to another on Chrome OS. You could drag the app to the destination desktop, or use keyboard shortcuts.
Press the Show windows or Overview key and drag the app/window to your preferred virtual desktop.

To move an app between desktops using keyboard shortcuts, open the app and press Shift + Search + Left Squared Bracket ( [ ). That will move the app/window to the desk on the left. To move an app to a desktop on the right, press Shift + Search + Right Squared Bracket ( ] ).

View All Windows in a Virtual Desktop
Although you can view all active apps/windows in Overview mode, there’s a nifty (and maybe better) alternative. Press Alt + Tab and you’ll see the windows opened across all desks. To view active tabs in the current desktop, hold Alt + Tab and then select Current desk.
Closing Virtual Desktops on Chromebook
To close a desktop, hover the cursor on the desk’s thumbnail and click the x icon at the top corner.

A quicker way to do this is using the Shift + Search + Minus (-) keyboard shortcut. That’ll instantly close the current desktop.
Rename Your Virtual Desktops
Want to give your desktop a different descriptive label? Press the Overview button, click the desk’s name (the mouse cursor should change to text cursor), and type a new name.

What’s More: Virtual Desktops Are Persistent
Chrome OS doesn’t delete or reset your Virtual Desktops when you reboot your Chromebook. Everything stays intact—desk name, arrangement, and position. However, shutting down your Chromebook will close all applications and windows within every desk.
Troubleshoot Virtual Desktop Problems on Chromebook
Virtual Desktops are very stable on Chromebooks. However, if you encounter any problem while creating, using, or switching between desks, restart your Chromebook and try again.
If the issue persists, ensure your Chromebook is up-to-date; go to Settings > About Chrome OS > Check for updates to update Chrome OS to the latest version. Drop a comment below if you have any questions or need help regarding Chromebook’s Virtual Desktops.
