Assign Workspaces to monitors

[Catskinner6]

Love the minimal, lightweight feel, while being able to set custom layouts for various tags and move windows with my mouse occasionaly (short coming with river).

I like assigning the numbered workspaces/tags to separate monitors. So far I can't see a good way to do this, so that when I hit a hot key like "Super+1" I always go to monitor one, workspace one. Or "Super+7" goes to monitor 2, workspace/tag 7. I would like my bar to only show 1-6 on monitor 1, and 7-9 on monitor 2. Or if on monitor 1, I can send a window to tag 8 (which will always be monitor 2) with a single key-combo.

I tried to get this to work with tagcrossmon, but I couldn't get that command to do anything- it does not appear to be functioning.

Is this just not a supported feature or maybe a work in progress?

I tried various formats for tagcrossmon command, so if anyone has success in using that it would do 90% of what I want.

OK so this works:

DP-1: tags 1–6 always exist / show up on DP-2

tagrule=id:1,monitor_name:DP-2,no_hide:1,layout_name:tile
tagrule=id:2,monitor_name:DP-2,no_hide:1,layout_name:tile
tagrule=id:3,monitor_name:DP-2,no_hide:1,layout_name:tile
tagrule=id:4,monitor_name:DP-2,no_hide:1,layout_name:tile
tagrule=id:5,monitor_name:DP-2,no_hide:1,layout_name:tile
tagrule=id:6,monitor_name:DP-2,no_hide:1,layout_name:tile

DP-2: tags 7–9 always exist / show up on DP-1

tagrule=id:7,monitor_name:DP-1,no_hide:1,layout_name:tile
tagrule=id:8,monitor_name:DP-1,no_hide:1,layout_name:tile
tagrule=id:9,monitor_name:DP-1,no_hide:1,layout_name:tile

Starting tags for each monitor

exec-once=mmsg -o DP-2 -s -t 1
exec-once=mmsg -o DP-1 -s -t 7

Send focused window to tag on the pinned monitor

bind=ALT,1,tagcrossmon,1,DP-2
bind=ALT,2,tagcrossmon,2,DP-2
bind=ALT,3,tagcrossmon,3,DP-2
bind=ALT,4,tagcrossmon,4,DP-2
bind=ALT,5,tagcrossmon,5,DP-2
bind=ALT,6,tagcrossmon,6,DP-2

bind=ALT,7,tagcrossmon,7,DP-1
bind=ALT,8,tagcrossmon,8,DP-1
bind=ALT,9,tagcrossmon,9,DP-1
