This is how I was able to do it using my rc.lua config. I'm running version
3.5.5 so it may be different from yours, but I think the only real
difference here may be syntactical; the basic concept is the same. Also,
I've put all of about 15 minutes into solving this problem and there is
almost certainly a better way to do it, but this should get you headed in
the right direction at least. As far as whether or not you *should *is
another question entirely. I would highly recommend that you try using
separate tag lists for each screen before you attempt to emulate the
behavior of other, inferior window managers ;-)
*To get the number keys to work properly, I added the bold for loops to the
following awful.key definitions:*
for i = 1, 10 do
globalkeys = awful.util.table.join(globalkeys,
awful.key({ modkey }, "#" .. i + 9,
function ()
* for screen = 1, screen.count() do*
local tag = awful.tag.gettags(screen)[i]
if tag then
awful.tag.viewonly(tag)
end
* end*
end),
awful.key({ modkey, "Control" }, "#" .. i + 9,
function ()
* for screen = 1, screen.count() do*
local tag = awful.tag.gettags(screen)[i]
if tag then
awful.tag.viewtoggle(tag)
end
*end*
end),
*Then to get the tag list to only show on one monitor, I added this if
statement. The value "2" here corresponds to my primary monitor. You may
have to set this to 1 or 2 depending on which monitor you want the tag list
and run prompts to be on:*
*if s == 2 then*
left_layout:add(mylauncher)
left_layout:add(mytaglist[s])
left_layout:add(mypromptbox[s])
*end*
