Re: [i3] Starting apps on designated workspace only on i3 startup

For me it works for urxvt but not for Iceweasel (ver 10.0.3) i. e. after
i3-msg workspace 6 ; i3-msg exec iceweasel ; i3-msg workspace 2
iceweasel appears on workspace 2.

Sorry for jumping in the middle of topic but I would be really interested
to find out how to force Iceweasel to behave.

Cheers,
Piotr

I tested it with:

i3-msg workspace 6 ; i3-msg exec urxvt ; i3-msg workspace 2

Which leads to urxvt starting on workspace 6 while I am seeing workspace
2.
Does that work for you?

Yes that works. I did a reboot as well to ensure urxvt was loading
it's slowest.
