This discussion was created from the release Amethyst 0.19.0 Beta.

Very excited to see this release! :)

I got the beta installed and while I'm able to bind the throw commands to spaces 11 and 12 they don't seem to do anything. I tried to use Shortcut Detective to see whether something else was capturing the keybinding but it showed nothing using it while showing Amethyst properly for the other bindings. It also doesn't seem to matter what I try for the bindings (although for those following along at home I tried '⌘⌥^F11', '⌘⌥⇧F11', and '⌘⌥F11'. My usual bindings are '⌘⌥^F11'.

[timvisher]

I also tried binding the throw right and left commands to see if it was something about Amethyst throwing to those spaces at all and moving the window to space 10 and throwing to 11 and 12 that way worked fine.

[timvisher]

I also get a system beep when pressing either binding.

[ianyh]

Dumb oversight on my part. We added the handling, but the binding still only loops to the first 10. I can fix it tomorrow, but it's in HotKeyMananger.swift if you want to take a look at it.

[timvisher]

Maybe maybe #1453? :)

🙏 glob for betas, amiright? ;P

[timvisher]

Don't see a discussion for Beta 2 but I wanted to say that i got it installed and we're golden from my end. ٩( ᐛ )و
