KC: How can I select a Project Workspace with a key command?

Nuendo
1

Let’s say I’ve got 10 Global Workspaces programmed in my template and while working in it, I’ve created 10 more Project Workspaces.
Now, I’d like to assign key command “control + 7” to my 5th Project Workspace, which is actually number 15 in my Workspaces-list…
How can I do that?

On my system (N8.2) the key-command-window shows me that I can only assign key-commands to Workspace 1 to 9…?
What am I doing wrong?

AFAIK only nine ws can have kc…

Thanks for your help Tumppi,
Isn’t it strange that you can’t assign a KC to a workspace “of your choice”?
I can live with the concept of “max 9 workspaces to be assigned to a KC”, but I can’t follow the philosophy of saying “there are 9 KC’s and they can only be assigned to the 1st 9 workspaces.

Another heritage from the imperfect past I’m afraid?
I will praise the day a programmer at Steinberg stands up and says; “I’m gonna solve all the annoying little imperfections”

Use Workspace X. Ctrl + Alt + Num 0.

Thanks for shining your light on this Stingray.
After experimenting with your suggestion I think it’s a great workaround, but it only works if the Workspaces-lists in all my projects are equal.

I use a couple (8) of Global Workspaces, and depending on the project I’m working on, I use a couple of Project Workspaces.
Sometimes I have 4 Project Workspaces, sometimes none, and sometimes 14 (??)
That means that the Workspaces-list changes when I change projects. As a result thís means that my Project Workspaces receive a different “sequential number” in the Workspaces List when changing projects…When I have “my favourite workspace” in “position” 11 in Project A, and a duplicate of that favourite Workspace in “position 9” in Project B, then can I use the “Workspace X-KC” of course , but that means that I have to remember that in Project A “my favourite workspace” is in “position” 11, and that “my favourite workspace” in Project B is in “position” 9, and I can’t see the benefit of this.

I still prefer a specific KC which recalls a specific Workspace.
In the KC-Window one can assign a specific KC to a specific Macro for instance, so that’s an example of the fact that it’s possible in Nuendo to assign a specific KC to a command which is actually being linked to “a name” instead of “a menu item”. I really hope someone at Steinberg sees the limitations of the current philosophy and changes it into something future-proof, or actually : into something flexible.

Thanks!
