Hey, i named my first 6 Desktops. But if i open programms on them or just open these Desktops, they open to each other in the panel. I would like to have a specific order. So that workspace number 1 is always on the left of the panel etc.
Is this possible? Dou you know how?
Thank you very very much.
sry for my bad english.

Maybe I was not clear enough.
You have to prefix the workspace name with number to keep them orderded (as explained in the mentioned userguide section).
So in your case "1:work" instead of "work". And you may want to do this even for 'move workspace' commands otherwise moving window to nonexisting workspace will move window to workspace "1" instead of "1:work".
Which version are you running? And how exactly are your workspaces named?
This was itroduced quite time ago and it should work.
See named workspaces in userguide for more details.
Okay, i did this. But isn't there a possibility to have just the name of the desktop shown in the panel, without the number in front of it?
This is my config
bindsym $mod+1 workspace main
bindsym $mod+2 workspace surf
bindsym $mod+3 workspace study
bindsym $mod+4 workspace prog
bindsym $mod+5 workspace music
bindsym $mod+6 workspace scripts
bindsym $mod+7 workspace 7 bindsym $mod+8 workspace 8 bindsym $mod+9 workspace 9 bindsym $mod+0 workspace 10
bindsym $mod+Shift+exclam move workspace 1
bindsym $mod+Shift+quotedbl move workspace 2
bindsym $mod+Shift+section move workspace 3
bindsym $mod+Shift+dollar move workspace 4
bindsym $mod+Shift+percent move workspace 5
bindsym $mod+Shift+ampersand move workspace 6
bindsym $mod+Shift+slash move workspace 7
bindsym $mod+Shift+parenleft move workspace 8
bindsym $mod+Shift+parenright move workspace 9
bindsym $mod+Shift+equal move workspace 10
I have an older version, because i installed it with the package source in ubuntu, because the .deb from the webiste didnt work. How can i update?
Sry i am a real noob in i3.
