I'm looking for a different way to name MXFB workspaces besides the uninspiring one we have had forever (W-1, W-2).
--I tried to use unicode for circled numbers
u2461, u2462, etc.
but just get the code
--I sort of like this:
#1, #2, etc.
thoughI'm not sure that it would work for non-English speakers
Anybody have ideas?

That's very neat, as long as the user doesn't change to more than 2. But I do wonder whether it might similar enuf to a folder that it function would be unclear.
Thanks for the suggestions, people. I'm still leaning myself to the "#1" idea, where the series number's role would be obvious.

I've always changed mine to the spelling of the names.
Code: Select all
session.screen0.workspaceNames: One, Two, Three, Four,

Problem with this is localization, it would need to be translated in many languages...

Then the simplest way would be just numbers and no names of any sort.

Which looks pretty bare all by itself--and it's not clear that is
naming and not counting--which I why I'm leaning toward "#1" instead where that distinction is clear.
