workspace names (very minor topic)

[siamhie]

also a reminder of key navigation for dispatch go direct to show specific Workspace Desktop.
antiX fluxbox /keys for example supports "CTRL+F1 - CTRL+F12: Switch to the 1st → 12th workspace" so the workspace name can be Ctrl F1,ctrl+F2,ctrl F3,...rl F12.
Workspace name being key name requires not translation.

Is that a quick way to learn a keybind?
mx-fluxbox /keys hoping to have no conflicts with Shift F1-F12, so
the workspace name can be Shift F1,Shift+F2,Shift F3, [twelve=F12]

I've changed my binding for mxfb-help to use Alt instead of Ctrl.

Code: Select all

# open help
Alt F1 :Exec mxfb-help
Shift F1 :Exec mx-manual

Ctrl is what I've been using to switch desktops on fluxbox for 20 years.

Code: Select all

# change to a specific workspace
Control F1 :Workspace 1
Control F2 :Workspace 2
Control F3 :Workspace 3
Control F4 :Workspace 4
Control F5 :Workspace 5
Control F6 :Workspace 6
Control F7 :Workspace 7
Control F8 :Workspace 8
Control F9 :Workspace 9
Control F10 :Workspace 10
Control F11 :Workspace 11
Control F12 :Workspace 12

I don't know what the limit is. That window took up almost a 1/3 of my 1440 desktop.

I don't know what the limit Thanks for taking time to give us a chuckle.
It says just, "int" integer. siamhie, i think You just found infinity in fluxbox.

All I did was set my variables to this and let fluxbox create the name for the workspace which defaults to Workspace.
I have since gone back to four workspaces.

Code: Select all

session.screen0.workspaceNames: 
session.screen0.workspaces:  250
