Option to show windows from special workspaces in overview

Closed this issue · 4 comments

I couldn't find if it's currently possible to show windows from special workspaces but it would be nice to have option in the plugin config like this:

special_workspaces = 1 # Show windows from special workspaces in overview
special_workspaces = 0 # Don't show

Is this really necessary? You can also bring up Windows in special workspace by doing the same as in normal mode

Probably not necessary, but for more consistency I think it would be a good idea to implement it, because special workspaces behave like normal workspaces, they can tile windows and set layouts, it’s not like they are simple scratchpads like in other window managers.

I’m a heavy user of special workspaces myself and sometimes they contain more than one window. It would be just a better experience for me to also have them in overview and always to be able to quickly focus that one window I want, no matter where it is with a single keybinding.

But I’ll understand if it’s too hard to implement or not in the scope of the project.

Thank you
