Workspaces

How it works

1. Press + at the foot of the rail and pick a folder. The workspace takes the folder's name and opens with its sections empty.
2. Right-click its tile and choose Edit to change its name, its Appearance (initials, an emoji, an icon or an image), its colour, its working directory and the Environment variables every tab in it starts with.
3. Press a tile to go to that workspace. ⌥⇧↓ and ⌥⇧↑ step to the next and previous one, and tiles are dragged up and down the rail to reorder them.
4. In the Commands section's menu, Start all auto-startable starts every command set to start on launch, and Stop all auto-startable stops them again.

Good to know

• The free version holds 5 workspaces with 10 tabs each. Origami+ has no limit on either.
• Settings › Workspaces lists every workspace, with what each holds and the same edit and remove actions.
• Settings › General › Sidebar can hide the Agents, Commands, Terminals or Browsers section. Its tabs are still reached from the command palette and the sidetrack.
• Removing a workspace asks first. It removes the workspace from Origami, never the folder on disk.
