Use case
I use the Workspaces core plugin in Obsidian to organize groups of tabs and files for different kinds of workflows I am currently doing into “containers”. For example, if I’m working on a specific project and have a bunch of files open but need to do something else, I save everything that’s open in Obsidian into a workspace so I can open up every file I was using and continue the work later.
Problem
My situation is that sometimes I have multiple days or parts to a project and need different workspaces for different things. So, when I need a different set of files open or a new layout to view files, I create a new workspace for the same project. The problem is that I may have other non-project-related workspaces saved in-between my project workspaces and the order isn’t grouped in a way that I can click through easily. I provided my current vault workspaces view for better reference:
A current ongoing project I have is called “Everything I Own”. I’ve been working on this project for a while but recently needed a new workspace that is now below multiple non-related workspaces.
Proposed solution
I propose that there be a way to organize and sort workspaces you’ve already created. I was thinking in a drag-and-drop sort of way. A small, grabbable icon next to the workspace titles that allow me to move the workspace layout somewhere else in the list.
Simply dragging the target workspace from the bottom of the scroll to underneath the other related project workspaces would make my workflow a little easier.
Current workaround (optional)
Currently, I scroll to find other related workspaces which is fine but my proposal is a nice feature that I wanted to share. What I used to do was delete each workspace and recreate the workspaces in a order that works for me.
