This suggestion can be a long to implement one, but I think it may be a powerful addition to LL. I think it was discussed before, but from comments and not as a whole post. If necessary I can make a flyspray about this (probably it is, but I prefer to ask).

Currently when you click on an event handler (tap, swipe, etc) it shows a list of lightning actions to choose (transforming this text-list into a icon-grid could be another suggestion, but for another post). When you choose an action it is set, and run when the event fire. Easy to understand.

This suggestion wants to change that, so that when you click on an event handler, a pop-up is shown instead where you can choose a list of actions, that will run sequentially. This list can be simple, with just an add button (that will show the current actions list to choose), the list of already added events, and edit/remove buttons on each one; or a more advanced window with different add buttons (for lightning actions, apps and shortcuts) a draggable list of added actions (to rearrange the order of execution) and edit/duplicate/remove buttons on each of them.

The idea is to allow multiple actions on each event, for example to:

– open an app and revert the position/zoom to 100%

– run a script and open an app

– run multiple shortcuts at once

– run multiple scripts without adding runScript

– run two apps (so when you close one, the other is shown instead of the desktop)

It will probably be necessary to change the EventHandler class, with a getList, addItem, etc. For compatibility maybe the getAction and getData can return those of the first in the list. This will need more thinking.
