I see!
I didn’t understand you had TE windows in 2 spaces.
What you are getting is what you get from the OS (finder, if you will).
Try the following, you have TE open in 2 spaces, in one of them SD is also opened
In the space where SD and TE are opened, in the Finder change the front app. You will see the only the window TE in the same space.
Now, in this same space close the TE window leaving only the windows in other space opened.
If SD is you front app, change to TE, you will be taken to the space where the windows are open.
If that is what the OS does, AppleScript can not do better than that!
