Japanese characters make the tray menu glitch

[nikitabobko]

Steps to reproduce:
1.use the config provided with given aerospace version
2.workspaces are using japanese numbers instead of the usual numbers

Expected result:
no glitches in menu
workspaces are ordered from 1 to 7

Actual result:
workspaces are ordered randomly
menu glitches out like crazy

Additional info

im using japanese numbers for workspaces

It's not Japanese characters, but something else, I have copied the config, but it doesn't reproduce for me locally.

@0oAstro what macOS version do you use

[0oAstro]

macos version 15.5

[nikitabobko]

Should be fixed in 0.19.2-Beta. Please let me know if it's not

[0oAstro]

i can confirm this has been fixed @nikitabobko thanks :)
i also wanted to ask is there any way to define custom ordering of workspaces for something like swipeaerospace as on the website?

If you are asking about the third party integration, it's better to ask in the appropriate integration repo, I don't know they are all configured. AeroSpace itself allows traversing workspaces in custom ordering
