I just updated to the last version of llx, with all its mighty new features, but I have a minor problem.
I just updated to the last version of llx, with all its mighty new features, but I have a minor problem.
I had found an easy solution to expand the notification tray with a single finger swipe down on an empty pinned panel (see picture).
I used this way since I needed ‘normal’ swipe in home screen to expand the panel below.
So when I updated I went to the ‘events & actions’ submenu for the panel, enabled single swipe down for tray expansion, but it does not work anymore.
It did, on rare occasions, but with a lot of inconsistency.
All the other triggers taps, double swipes work perfectly.
Am I the only one having troubles with single finger swipe events?

Works fine for me. All I can think of is to make sure the panel scrolling is set to none… or at least horizontal only. If you’ve already done that, then I don’t know. Maybe if the panel was a little wider so you don’t miss it??

Chris Chastain in my case i tried what you wrote, but still not working

Try the opposite: set the scroll to vertical (and or horizontal)Ok no. Won’t work.
I think the issue is with the new behaviour of scrolling. Now, if the panel can’t scroll the scroll will act instead in the desktop.
Question: why are you using a panel? Can’t you use a normal shortcut with the swipe down? (Maybe you can’t I don’t know. That’s why I’m asking)

TrianguloY your explanation seems to make sense.
Your question is quite valid, I have no reason not to use a shortcut (and I will from now on), I just used a panel the first time and it worked, now I wondered if this was a bug of sorts or I was doing something wrong.
Question: does loading a panel instead of a shortcut take up more memory?

TrianguloY in my case it would make sense. e.g. in my accordion setup swipe up/down should open/close the accordion.

Probably you have some items more than visible home screen (in same direction) – you have more screens in one desktop . If yes, swipe for this way consumed your gestures.

… so we need LLX to check for an event/action in a container, before passing it to the desktop?

< ![CDATA[
Chris Chastain exactly. Not sure how is implemented now.
Pierre Hébert?

Maybe I’m missing something here, but why the need of a panel? Why don’t you use a normal (no-action) shortcut, with a swipe down action?

Gábor Barta because there is the option to do it.

Gábor Barta, in Elia Vardanega’s case, he states in his OP, he needs to have his desktop scroll vertically to access the bottom dock area. Would a swipe on a shortcut work in that instance?

< ![CDATA[
Chris Chastain As i said in my last comment, the shortcut works.
The workaround is exactly the same, I just need to position the shortcut in a specified (and limited) position and then I can access the bottom dock with ease.
Gábor Barta the case of gerd reuter seems instead to require the use of panels, so we were just speculating on why a solution, that should nominally be possible, doesn’t work.

Chris Chastain I have vertically scrolling desktop && shortcut with swipe up action (folder open). It works.
gerd reuter You can do that, but the question is which one consumes less memory? An empty panel, or a shortcut item?

< ![CDATA[
Gábor Barta in my case the panels are NOT empty. Personaly i create only objects when i realy need them.

< ![CDATA[
gerd reuter but in Elia Vardanega ‘s case it’s empty. You didn’t mention until now that yours not.

It may have worked previously with a panel, but now it cannot work safely.
The reason is that the panel now “catches” touch events when it ‘thinks” it should do it. When it cannot scroll in a direction, it will let events flow to the parent container and the swipe gesture cannot work. I didn’t anticipated this, and the option will have to be removed.
Use shortcuts instead of panels, they are much lightweight.

Well, that about wraps it up, doesn’t it?
Thanks Pierre Hébert for clearing the doubts.
