Description
When scrolling through the workspace using the workspace, e +/- 1 , the animation direction of going from workspace 1 to the the last is the same than going from 1 to 2. The same applies from going to the last to the first which is also reversed.
How to reproduce
- Open at least 3 workspaces
- Scroll between the first and the last
- The animation is reversed which is confusing for navigation

No response
This animation direction is intentional, as the last workspace is in the same direction as the second workspace from the perspective of the first workspace.
As far as I understood you want the option to have the following behavior instead:
The relevant code section determining the direction of this animation is in src/helpers/Monitor.cpp:527 in the changeWorkspace function which gets called in src/managers/KeybindManager.cpp:929. I won't implement a Pull Regest for this for now as it is quite late, but I might take another look at it tomorrow.
PR draft is ready: #4684. The option is named binds:animate_workspace_band for now, but I am open for suggestions.
#4684 and hyprwm/hyprland-wiki#477 are ready. I am just waiting for feedback from @Azercoco.
I propose animations:workspace_wraparound instead, it's more consistent with where other workspace animation setting are configured and imo is a more straightforward name
The option is now called animations:workspace_wraparound. Thanks for the suggestion @KoyeBosh.
