Hello Jeff,
On my desktop, I typically pair workspaces, and if I change the left one,
I'm about to change the right one.
Does i3 have native support for this? (I don't see it?) Or should I write
a script that does both changes for me (not hard)? Or is there a better
way?
There's another way: fake-outputs!
https://faq.i3wm.org/question/1659/force-one-i3-instanceworkspace-across-multiple-monitors/
It's not supported nor recommended by Michael and therefore goes
unmentioned in the docs (it only exists for the testsuite), but I
happily use it with a 3 monitor setup without issues. Your mileage may
vary of course, and Michael mentions possible shortcomings in this thread:
