Questions for those who like the grid layout of virtual desktops - how does it (or should it?) interact with multi monitor setups? Feels like this would break or at least compromise the spatial metaphor.

- Each monitor has own grid?

- The VD 'spans' the pair of monitors?

- VDs only on one monitor?

- The monitors form a fixed 'window' into the grid?

- Something else?

I have a separate grid on each screen. Each with different grid sizes. I have a 3x3 grid on my main display a 2x2 grid on my display to the left and leave my laptop display with no grid constantly locked to my works video conference application.

It works well for me, but as you can see from the comments everyone is different :)

I have a Kwin plugin so my laptop is always the same, but my external monitor is a grid. Iirc by default, KDE makes them all share the same grid
