Problem with workspace focus when the name starts with space #146

I have my workspace names in i3 set to start with space (for example " 1: "). workspace_name = " 1: \uf015" i3.command(f'workspace {workspace_name}') The above code in python3, with i3 as the connection object, takes me to workspace "1: " instead of " 1: ".

Try quoting your workspace name.

i3.command(f'workspace "{workspace_name}"')

It worked. Thanks
