In hotkeys, why not have a 'previous desktop' shortcut ?

Inappropriate?No reason at all. I'll look into adding one - would you prefer this be completely customisable, or more like Apple's command-tab behaviour where when you hold down shift, it reverses the action?
I’m keen to see this happen
-
Inappropriate?IMHO completely customisable things are always better for power users ...
-
Inappropriate?Is it normal that there is still no "previous desktop" key binding in the last beta version ?
A "previous" / "next" desktop use case seems so common ...
Thank you for your support ! -
Inappropriate?You'll need to be running 1.0 beta 8 for this work: http://getsatisfaction.com/thecocoabo...
Setting the last two hotkeys will give you what I believe you want ('Switch to the next space' / 'Switch to the last space'). Let me know if that's not the case:
I’m confident
-
Inappropriate?I just downloaded the program on the page you are referring to (http://hyperspacesapp.com/test/Hypers...) but I can only see this :
-
Inappropriate?Even in your screenshot, there is no 'Switch to the previous space', which is what I would need and asked.
Maybe my messages weren't clear enough ... -
Sorry, I misunderstood your request. I'll take a look at this tonight. -
Righto - give this build a try:
http://hyperspacesapp.com/test/Hypers...
There is a new hotkey "Switch to the previously active space" that should do what you're looking for. -
Inappropriate?Thanks for your quick reaction Tony !
I tested the build and the new hotkey behavior ...
Is it possible to make a "Switch to the previous space" instead of "Switch to the previously ACTIVE space" ?
Seems more logic to me.
Which means :
next space hotkey :
1 -> 2 -> 3 -> 1 -> ...
previous space hotkey :
1 -> 3 -> 2 -> 1 -> ...
Without any notion of "history". Just seeing the spaces as a circle where you can switch back and forth ...
Am I clear enough ? :-) -
Yes, definitely got it this time. I've been calling this 'circular' space switching. Well, I've got to get a new beta out by Thursday so let me see how far I get! -
Turns out that my beta expiry is next month - I am taking this opportunity to rewrite some of the lower-level code in Hyperspaces so that I don't have to do as much work for version 1.1 and later releases.
Circular switching is still on my TODO list for the next beta. -
Inappropriate?Is it in the new beta 9 ?
Because I couldn't find it ...
Thank you :-) -
Sorry spiriner, no, not yet. The rewrite took a lot more effort than I had thought.
