For example, I have this : # switch to workspace bindsym $mod+ampersand workspace www bindsym $mod+eacute workspace mail bindsym $mod+quotedbl workspace im bindsym $mod+apostrophe workspace dev bindsym $mod+parenleft workspace zik bindsym $mod+minus workspace taf bindsym $mod+egrave workspace 7 bindsym $mod+underscore workspace 8 bindsym $mod+ccedilla workspace compta bindsym $mod+agrave workspace term But the workspaces are ordered by the first loaded application process. Can't we imagine a way to fix the order without use numbers on the name of the workspaces ?Sun, 25 Nov 2012 08:49:04 +0000https://faq.i3wm.org/question/812/keep-workspaces-in-order-possible/https://faq.i3wm.org/question/812/keep-workspaces-in-order-possible/?answer=813#post-id-813If you need them ordered, prefix them with a number, e.g. "3: dev".
