Stop points are in v8.6b1

Stop points are in v8.6b1

This includes:

– Stop points that also stop dragging, not just scrolling

– Stop points in a given direction (up, down, left, right)

– Snap to stop point

That’s for the good news. Now for the bad: I removed the older “Use auto scroll stops” option, it was really odd to keep it. I recommend to either use Snap to pages, or use new stop points.

Also there is a new option in the General section to show stop points even if not in edit mode. This should help when setting up stop points.

This version is available to anyone : I wanted to publish it as beta first, but I incorrectly pushed the button, et voila, it is on the production channel now, lol.

Have fun !

    In theory it should work quite well, but you never know… And Google Play didn’t allow me to rollback…

    Josh Gray yes indeed this is really different.  It is easy to get lost if too many stop points are set too 🙂

    Pierre HĂ©bert maybe if these were pinnable, in the same way everything else is, we could use fewer?

    Brilliant, +Pierre HĂ©bert . After some testing, new stop points work perfectly. Scroll is now much more accurate. Only one question: is there a way to avoid scroll beyond stop points? On the other hand, if I stop scroll in a point placed before the stop point, scroll stops too, so I’m not sure if I’m getting swap function work correctly. Am I missing some new option?. As always, thanks for your work

    Chris Chastain in fact this would not work because the launcher detects when a screen edge crosses a stop point. Hence if a stop point is pinned, it will never be crossed.

    Javier RodrĂ­guez GarcĂ­a have a look at the barrier switch. It will really prevent going beyond a scroll point (though there are few tricks to bypass this barrier…).


    Regarding snapping, well this is tricky and there are several cases:


    – if you stop dragging without moving : LL will snap to the nearest snapping point


    – if you stop dragging but with some enough speed, ll will look for the nearest point in the direction of the move only, maybe this would explain that it does not snap in your case ?

    Josh Gray , thanks. Indeed, that’s my target (stop point as a barrier) but, how do you get this?. I place the stop point at the edge of my sidebar (I mean, the end of the last column), but scroll still can reach the end of that screen, beyond the stop point.

    brilliant Pierre HĂ©bert, fantastic work, barriers are great, single direction stopping is bliss, it will take a while to get my head around snapping as i am finding some SP’s are bypassed when one is set to snap and differently configured ones all seem to want to snap to th bottom, snapping is almost made redundant by th stop dragging but i will keep trying to use th snapping, although a barrier can be passed by a snapping stop point, thanks for th new features :-)ï»ż

    Gustavo Luis Soto , I’m still trying to understand how some new functions work. By now, everything’s perfect, I just don’t get the snap function. One way or another, always I customize one of my stop points with that option, they stop working correctly. I’ve placed two stop points per side bar (one on each edge), the same with bottom and upper bar and all is working fine, except if I select the snapping option for any of them. If I do so, barriers don’t act in some cases.


    Anyway, it’s not a big deal. Everything is fine if I disable snapping option
