Desktop names not shown in expanded view #82

The desktop name is shown only when hovering on it. Would it be possible to always show the deskopt name like we can see here?

The desktop name shows in the expanded view if you have below…I think 8? spaces. Above a certain number it only shows it when hovering. This is the same behavior as native, so not a change that SpacesRenamer introduces. It’s because displaying the name without hovering doesn’t have enough space to fit, so there’s no good UX to fix this. Marking as wontfix.

I understand. But based on your knowledge, would it be possible to change that? After all, when you hove over the screen, the text is shown.

Can you draw a picture of what the UI would look like? The issue is there's not enough space to put text of all of the names underneath.
