blendi, I deleted my previous answer because it didn't work. I've tried with **for_window** and it works: for_window [title="(?i)chat$"] move to workspace 2

I put all my steam windows in the "steam" workspace with: assign [class="(?i)steam"] steam I think that if you only want to move chat windows, this should work: assign [title="(?i)- Chat"] 2 And remember to restart steam.
