Big problem… my desktop is locked and I cannot unlock it.
Big problem… my desktop is locked and I cannot unlock it.
Scenario: One-page layout, completely filled with widgets, no empty space. Pinch-zoom disabled. I was able to open long-tap menu and in “Lightning Settings” chose “Lock Desktop”.
Now there’s no way to long-tap anywhere to unlock.
I have folders and panels, those have empty space allowing to long-tap (BTW: should they when locked?), but there is no LL action to “Unlock Desktop” (“Unlock Screen” is for lockscreen).
LL action “Lightning Menu” shows a context sensitive menu for “Panel Settings” or “Folder Settings”. “Customize Lightning” brings the main configuration screen, but here’s no option “Lock Desktop” I could uncheck.
What’s missing:
a) option in lightning settings to unlock desktop
b) always option in long-tap menu “Lightning Settings”

Phew, found a way: added shortcut in folder “Customize Lightning”, from there chose “Desktop Settings” and enabled “Pinch Zoom”. Now I could zoom out to reach an empty space I could long-tap to unlock.
But without folder or panel I would’ve been out of luck.

Easy:
Go to another app that can launch shortcuts (another launcher for example)
Place and use the shortcut ‘lightning settings’
From now, my personal solution is to set the swipe down with two fingers to show pop-up menu (lightning menu).
This way is like have a physical menu button.

TrianguloY Hmmm, works, but only shows a one-item high menu at bottom-left corner. Luckily scrollable.
And even more strange it only has “Panel Settings”, not “Lightning Settings” in it. Though I did not start nor stop swiping on any panel.
EDIT: Works now after I tipped on any non-panel item on the desktop. Now shows the menu relative to that item, but with “Lightning Settings”. So the menu shown highly depends on what you clicked last before 2-finger-swipe…
