Really sorry to hear that . What sort of issues , if you don ' t mind saying ? <| sep |> that ' s how I started . I eventually copped a record player and now I listen to all the records I bought and still buy <| sep |> I ' m not doing this exactly as you want , but I have a similar solution working and I thought I could share . I assigned odd workspaces to my left monitor and even workspaces to my right monitor in the config file . Then I wrote a small Python script which can open a new workspace on the currently selected monitor . This way I have fixed assignment for workspaces 110 , but I can create arbitrarily many new ones while keeping odd numbers on the left and even numbers on the right . Then I cycle through workspaces with modTab modShiftTab to reach those not directly reachable with modnumber . I ' m on mobile now but I can share this script later if there ' s interest .
