Near as I can tell that chain can't be broken. That shouldn't be a problem though, because workspaces are unique. Once a workspace is created on a particular monitor a workspace of the same name can't exist anywhere else. So you'd just need to assign specific workspaces to specific monitors, then create keybindings to move windows to specific workspaces.Thu, 31 Jul 2014 00:30:09 +0000https://faq.i3wm.org/question/4358/move-a-windowcontainer-to-a-specific-workspace-on-a-specific-output/?answer=4359#post-id-4359
