Option to Switch Workspaces Directly Without Cycling Through All Windows

Open UmmItC opened this issue 6 months ago • 0 comments

Hello!

I've been using this tool for a few weeks now, and it’s been working great. I have a couple of suggestions that could make it even better.

Currently, when switching workspaces, the tool cycles through all open windows by default. This can be cumbersome if there are many windows in the workspace. For example, if I want to switch from Workspace 1 to Workspace 3, but Workspace 2 has several windows, I end up having to tab through all the windows in Workspace 2 before reaching Workspace 3.

Here’s a scenario:

  • Workspace 1 has 1 window.
  • Workspace 2 has 3 windows.
  • Workspace 3 has 1 window.

If I’m on Workspace 1 and want to switch to Workspace 3, I need to tab through all 3 windows in Workspace 2 before reaching Workspace 3, totaling 4 tabs. This can be inefficient, especially when the windows are not far apart.

It would be more efficient if workspace switching could ignore the windows and just move to the next workspace directly.

Additionally, it would be beneficial if the mouse position remained unchanged during the workspace switch.

It would be great if there were an option to switch workspaces directly without cycling through all windows and without affecting the mouse position.
