Hi, I'm using three monitors and each monitor has 10 workspaces. This is the code I'm using to switch workspaces: [code] myWorkspaces = withScreens 3 ["1","2","3","4","5","6","7","8","9"] ... [((m .|. modm, k), windows $ onCurrentScreen f i) | (i, k) <- zip (workspaces' conf) [xK_1 .. xK_9] , (f, m) <- [(W.greedyView, 0), (W.shift, shiftMask)]] [/code] I wanted to modify it to add a keybind to switch the workspace on all three monitors at once. For example, control + modm + 2 would switch all monitors to workspace 2. But I'm afraid I don't understand whats going on in that code. Could someone give me a hand? Kristopher

--- unfortunately, it does not look like anyone has provided integration
with IndependentScreens to treat them as predefined groups.

I'm moving workspaces around to different screens all the time, so the details will be different. But what I'd suggest is that you compose; just have your key press do "set screen 1 to workspace 1. Set screen 2 to workspace 1. "... etc. Example from my stuff below. , ((modm .|. shiftMask, xK_s ), do { windows (viewOnScreen 0 "tsmmon" ) >> windows (viewOnScreen 2 "tsmsess" ) } ) , ((modm .|. shiftMask, xK_f ), do { windows (viewOnScreen 0 "dd1" )
windows (viewOnScreen 2 "dd2" ) } )
, ((modm .|. shiftMask, xK_n ), windows (viewOnScreen 0 "mail" )) , ((modm .|. shiftMask, xK_a ), do { windows (viewOnScreen 0 "tsmmon" ) >> windows (viewOnScreen 2 "tsmsess" ) >> windows (viewOnScreen 1 "mail" ) >> windows (viewOnScreen 3 "web" ) } )
