This bug has been reported many times on Ask Ubuntu, but I think I've figured it out (see attachment)

In order to use Gnome Classic and Compiz, one has to use the General Settings>Desktop Size

Then choose Horizontal Virtual Size as 4

Vertical Virtual Size 1

Number of Desktops 1

This results in ALL Desktops having the same name "Worspace 1" - I believe this is the source of the problem.

Is there any way to rename each of the Horizontal Virtual Size "workspaces"?

Thanks

Here are some of what appear to be the same bug:
