feature: display workspace number instead of layout #127
Conversation
|
Maybe the workspace number starting at 0 or 1 should be configurable. For example, I use workspace 0 as I have 10 virtual work spaces configured. |
Overview Added a new configuration option to display workspace numbers instead of window layout previews in the menu bar. Configuration Add the following to your `~/.config/rift/config.toml`: ```toml [settings.ui.menu_bar] enabled = true show_workspace_numbers = true ``` Options - `show_workspace_numbers = false` (default): Shows the traditional window layout preview - `show_workspace_numbers = true`: Shows the workspace number (1-based) instead This option can be combined with: - `show_empty = false` (default): Only shows workspaces with windows - `show_empty = true`: Shows all workspaces including empty ones
Sure, I'm using 10 workspaces too, but with my keybindings starting at 1 makes more sense. I'll add another confguration key. |

so whilst this change is very welcome this pr cannot be merged in its current state. Rift uses the up to date objc2* family of macos bindings so we should aim to use those instead of core-foundation, core-graphics and so forth. there are also a lot of unnecessary comments that i would rather not have in rifts codebase. |

Closing this for now. I will reopen it if and when I find the time to try again without adding new dependencies |
it should be relatively trivial since the crates you added are doing basically the same thing as the objc2* crates. just a simple translation |

Overview
Added a new configuration option to display workspace numbers instead of window layout previews in the menu bar.
Configuration
Add the following to your
~/.config/rift/config.toml:Options
show_workspace_numbers = false(default): Shows the traditional window layout previewshow_workspace_numbers = true: Shows the workspace number (1-based) insteadThis option can be combined with:
show_empty = false(default): Only shows workspaces with windowsshow_empty = true: Shows all workspaces including empty onesExample:
Notes
In contrast to other WMs like i3, hyprland etc, this will only show the workspace if at least one window exists or show_empty is set. This means switching to an empty workspace does not show the number yet, which is okay from my point of view.
