Not sure how hard it would be but I’d love to see the llx lock screen handle events better. Such as opening a folder via tasker or the screen on event within llx.

The main reason is because I love the idea of having a very dynamic lock screen driven by tasker and changing based on my needs. Like music controls only when my music is playing, a shopping list displayed when I’m near the store, or work tasks on the screen when at work. With tasker and llx it’s possible but the lock screen forces everything to open underneath it. I posted a very rough video just to quickly demonstrate what I mean.

I will also add that the folder can be opened on the lock screen and closed without effecting the opened folder on the desktop.

    This is a good idea. I also think that the desktop and the lock screen need to be independent regarding opened folders and such.


    Technically the desktop and the lockscreen are two distinct activities. It means that when you call a shortcut for the desktop, it will reach the desktop, and the lockscreen is not aware of that.


    What it is possible to do is update the intent in tasker so that it targets the lockscreen instead: you need to replace ‘Dashboard’ with ‘LockScreen’, and on the LL side I also need to enable this in the LockScreen activity. I will do the required modification and we’ll see how it works in the next version.

    Ya that’s how I figured the lock screen worked. I use auto shortcut in tasker to call the shortcuts that llx has but u can start looking more in to intents and see what all is possible with that when the next release is made. Thanks for the quick response.
