The new editor is great, but I really miss the old fullscreen settings dialogs for item properties.

The new editor is great, but I really miss the old fullscreen settings dialogs for item properties. That floating settings window is way to small for convenient editing (and is often in the wrong place initially). Suggestion: would it be possible to get a button to maximize the floating window to fullscreen? That would really help.

Each with background reveal from center or icon.

The Material Dialog library looks awesome.

The Material Dialog library looks awesome. Maybe Pierre Hébert​ could use it in Lightning Launcher. If publishing the dialogs to be usable from script… what a dream!

There’s a demo app in Play Store, try it.

Huh, cool. Big apps that use my library Material Dialogs:

Nova Launcher (Beta), Action Launcher, and AcDisplay (not the Google Play version yet).

I’m sure there’s others, but those are some big players in the store. I’ve known about the first two for a while since they both have contacted me, and Kevin has contributed a lot to the library.

Anyone can explain why ItemClick event does not work with GridView in AlertDialog?

Anyone can explain why ItemClick event does not work with GridView in AlertDialog? It should, googled, all samples are like this. In pure Java, though… Dialog shows properly, can click, but no event is fired.

var llCtx=LL.getContext();

var adapter=new ArrayAdapter(llCtx, R.layout.simple_list_item_1, items);

var gridView=new GridView(llCtx);

gridView.setAdapter(adapter);

gridView.setNumColumns(4);

gridView.setOnItemClickListener(new AdapterView.OnItemClickListener(){

onClick:function(parent,v,position,id)

{

Android.makeNewToast(id+”/”+position,true).show();

}

});

var builder=new AlertDialog.Builder(llCtx);

builder.setView(gridView);

builder.setTitle(title);

builder.show();

Color Matching seems to be the “next big thing”.

Color Matching seems to be the “next big thing”. Any idea how to properly add this to LL? I’m thinking of script feature like “LL.getMatchingColor” or something…

Action Launcher 3.3 is OUT NOW

Grab it from the Play Store now: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.actionlauncher.playstore

First up with this release is an open source API[1] that allows live wallpaper developers to that use it to ensure Quicktheme color matching is 100% up to date with the current wallpaper. Minima[2]/Minima Pro[3] highlights this feature extremely well. As someone who’s been using this feature for a few weeks, I can tell you it’s really great when your wallpaper colors randomly cycle and items such as your search box animate to the new colors automatically.

Also new is a fully customizable gesture and shortcut system. This feature has been highly requested for a long time, and it’s been pleasing to see how how happy beta testers have been with the level of customization available here.

There’s a lot more goodies in store with Action Launcher 3.3, so check out the full change log:

• NEW: Live wallpaper API support, enabling Quicktheme to reliably work with live wallpaper apps. For an example of this in action, check out the excellent Minima Pro.

• NEW: Shortcuts & gestures (Settings -> Shortcuts) both expanded and fully customizable. Gestures supported include: single/double/triple tap Home button; double/triple tap empty space; swipe up single/two fingers; swipe down single/two fingers; swipe left screen edge/swipe leftmost Home screen/swipe right screen edge/swipe rightmost Home screen; and pinch in/out.

• NEW: Ability to configure action taken by a gesture. Actions include load an app, load a shortcut, toggle All Apps, toggle Quickdrawer, toggle Quickpage, open Action 3 settings, display overview mode, lock/unlock desktop, lock device, open recents, open notifications, open text search and open voice search.

• NEW: When searching, use Google search box overlay instead of switching into the Google app. Can be changed via Settings -> Shortcuts -> Global search mode.

• NEW: As requested, an additional Donate option has been added for people who are so inclined (Settings -> Help -> Donate).

• NEW: Animate to/from the All Apps background color when opening/closing All Apps (requires Android 5.0 or later).

• NEW: Home screen indicators updated to match Android 5.1’s style.

• NEW: Allow importing of Action 3 layouts by other launchers. Thanks Kevin from Nova for the prod here.

• IMPROVEMENT: Gesture detection works over icons as well as empty space.

• IMPROVEMENT: Shortcuts to open notification panel works on Samsung devices running Android 5.x (requires granting access to the Accessibility system unfortunately).

• IMPROVEMENT: Size and positioning of Google search widget perfectly matches with the Google app on tablets.

• IMPROVEMENT: “Remove Shutter” option is available both when picking up and putting down a Shutter and from the overflow menu.

• CHANGE: No longer default to opening Google Now when swiping right on leftmost Home screen. This option can be configured via Settings -> Shortcuts -> Leftmost Home screen -> App -> Google.

• CHANGE: Increase default double/triple tap delay to 275 milliseconds.

• FIX: Use light touch effect when Up button is pressed in Settings.

• FIX: If a Shutter/folder is open on the Quickpage, don’t close Shutter/folder and Quickpage with the same swipe gesture.

• FIX: Fix behavior oddities when changing settings via the “Action 3 Settings” All Apps item.

• FIX: Misc. stability fixes.

Label alignment currently is only left, right, top, bottom. I suggest: center.

Label alignment currently is only left, right, top, bottom. I suggest: center.

Useful for font-based “icon” (set as label) over i.e. a single colored circle icon. Negative offset is not sufficient.
