My fingers already cause enough trouble when they're not on 
automatic ;-) but yes, it _might_ be possible to cobble 
something up by generating Control- keystrokes to shift 
to a given space and then opening the desired document(s) for 
that space.


(With however the caveat that even if this works, any such 
approach is going to be somewhat fragile.)

Perhaps you could use View > Open in Additional Window to make as as 
many windows for the same document as you have virtual desktops? 
Scrolling/selection wouldn’t be synchronized, but at least you’d 
have the window everywhere you want it.


Hope this helps,

Have a look at TotalSpaces2 (https://totalspaces.binaryage.com/). Using it and 
Keyboard Maestro, I can do what you're after.

Yep, that part works just fine, or showing all windows everywhere but 
not the combination of them.

Can you not hit the "Command" + "Up Arrow" then drag the window to the 
space you want. I just tested this in Mojave and it seems to do what you're 
asking...Except for maybe the all desktops.

Window management and virtual desktop question

[Jan Erik Moström]

I tend to use BBEdit for various things, note taking, writing code, etc. 
I also use virtual desktops for doing various things, admin, writing 
code, email, etc.


My "problem" is that I want to have the code window(s) only on the code 
writing desktop, admin window(s) only on the admin desktop, note taking 
window on all desktops, and so on.


Is there some way to config the windows of BBEdit in this way, i.e. 
something like this


Window 1 - desktop 1 only
Window 2 - desktop 2 only
Window 3 - desktop 2 only
Window 4 - desktop 1 only
Window 5 - all desktops

I don't think it's possible but I've missed things before. macOS only 
have "this desktop" or "all desktops"
