Seems good enough I want to use it on my computer at work. One question though before I switch. In dwm, most of the time I assign one tag to each window, meaning I'm using the tag system like workspaces in i3. Sometimes I do have multiple tags for a window, and I'm wondering if that can be done in i3. Essentially what I want is have a window show up in multiple workspaces. Is that possible?Mon, 01 Oct 2012 21:43:15 +0000https://faq.i3wm.org/question/575/dwm-like-tagging/Answer by Michael for <p>Hi there, just installed i3 on my laptop to try it out.

How would sticky window would defer from giving multiple tags to a window? I guess if you used a different word, that means this will be different in some way.Fri, 05 Apr 2013 09:47:58 +0000https://faq.i3wm.org/question/575/dwm-like-tagging/?comment=1557#comment-1557Comment by Michael for <p>No, this is not possible yet (as of i3 v4.3).</p> https://faq.i3wm.org/question/575/dwm-like-tagging/?comment=840#comment-840There are plans to have a sticky windows feature which would most likely cover what you want to do.Thu, 29 Nov 2012 15:38:55 +0000https://faq.i3wm.org/question/575/dwm-like-tagging/?comment=840#comment-840Answer by nox for <p>Hi there, just installed i3 on my laptop to try it out.
