Loop through workspaces #338

Closed nelwa closed 2 years ago

nelwa commented 2 years ago

Hi,

Is it possible to loop through workspaces, ie: when you reach the last workspace, but 3-finger swipe up, it should go to the first workspace again.

Keyboard shortcuts, ctrl+alt+left or right arrow works like this, but libinput-gestures stops at the last/first workspace, and the only way to reach the other end is to reverse your swipe direction, and go through each workspace.

Thanks for a great utility!

Please, as per the instructions, always paste the output of libinput-gestures -l when you raise any issue.

In short, that is already possible. Read the instructions in the libinput-gestures.conf sample file. I.e, add -w to the _internal command.

Thanks for the reply, but I can't seem to get it to work.

Where exactly in libinpunt-gestures.conf should I add the -w

gesture swipe up _internal -w ws_up or gesture swipe up _internal ws_up -w or where?

Never mind, I was working in the wrong libinput-gestures.conf file. The changes should be applied in the /etc/ version & this is the correct format: gesture swipe up _internal -w ws_up

The changes should not be in the /etc/libinput-gestures.conf file. Please read the instructions. You copy the default file to your personal ~/.config/libinput-gestures.conf file and edit that. E.g. the file in /etc/ may get clobbered when you update libinput-gestures. We would have both seen this if you had pasted the output of libinput-gestures -l (as the README asks, the issue raising instructions ask, and as I asked for above).

Ok, thank you, I've copied the file to ~/.config/

All is working now. Thank you for a great utility!
