Add Spacebar as a modifier key I want to configure my shortcuts to switch between multiple desktops. Currently, I am using Control as the modifier key, but that's a bit too difficult for me to reach. I want to use the Spacebar as a modifier key. So I can assign shortcuts like:


Space + C: Desktop 1 (Holds Google Chrome)
Space + I: Desktop 2 (Holds IntelliJ)
Space + T: Desktop 3 (Holds Terminal)
Space + P: Desktop 4 (Holds Postman)


The system won't let me use Spacebar as a modifier key. If I use Command (which is a bit easier for me to reach), then it collides with my copy and paste shortcuts.

I would prefer a native solution but I am ready to use an app as well.
There are native shortcuts which let you go to specific Desktop by Control + 1 etc.

But according to your needs to remove your conflicts with Copy/Paste shortcut, edit the keys by going to System Preferences → Keyboard → Shortcuts. Then you can add/edit Shortcuts to use CMD + C etc for going to specific applications.
