Does anyone know how to, or if it is possible to incorporate a command into a workflow to have the space change at a set time during the day?
What I would like to do is be able to set a time, and have the focus on the computer screen change from one desktop to another with that time comes. I.E., say I set an alarm for 10 AM, and start my morning work activities at 8 AM, using Word on desktop #1. At 10AM I want the application to switch to desktop #2, where I have a photo editing application open, or music or what ever, open to start working on it.
The only remote answer that I have been able to compile would be to use a combination of things together to accomplish this. 1. Anchor each application to a specific desktop. 2. Use the launch application command in automator, identifying the application I want the focus to change to. 3. Tie in a second command linked to a reminders alarm, or calendar alarm as the trigger for the event. Setting the variable to that event.
This is a work around, because I would like to do additional things and do not necessarily want to tie programs to a specific desktop when I am not completing tasks within the normal daily schedule.
I attempted to use the watch me do command, switching from desktop or space to space. When I finished the record process, nothing had been recorded.
If there is a way, I appreciate your insight in advance.
