Cycled switch of spaces [enhancement] #284

Open artemlazaruk opened 2 years ago

artemlazaruk commented 2 years ago

Description

Hi Noah. Would be great to have a feature to cycle switch between spaces (1>2>3>1>2>3>1) with 1 mouse button (scroll click for example). Unfortunately, I haven't find a way to do it even with keyboard shortcut.

Rationale

It's impossible to switch between spaces with a simple 3 button mouse and would be ultra convenient to do so for those who use 2-3 spaces.

Additional info

Thanks for your efforts.

If you are wanting the functionality of extra buttons maybe consider buying a mouse with M4 and M5 buttons. They go as cheap as $10 and are reliable if you pick the right one.

If not another thing that you can do is set the click and drag behaviour to 'Mission Control & Spaces'. Not the same as scrolling but I'm pretty sure the scroll wheel can only be used for scrolling.

@artemlazaruk You can bind Shortcuts to workspaces on macOS in System Preferences → Keyboard → Shortcuts. I have them set up for space 1-10:

Hey @artemlazaruk, thanks for your ideas!

Are you aware of the click and drag to switch spaces feature? Why would you prefer the cycled switching?

Thanks!
