Add swipe gestures to notifications and settings panels

Open smileyhead opened this issue 5 years ago • 6 comments

Describe the new feature: Since these two panels are already, well, panels, it would make sense to be able to open and close them with gestures.

Definitely want this. I'd even use it on desktop, I think.

I know this issue is ancient and hasn't had any activity, but I would like to put my support towards it. When I opened Lazer on my phone a bit ago, I found myself trying to swipe from the left of the screen to open the settings menu. Of course, that didn't do anything. Maybe there could be even more gestures for other actions, like mods, random song, etc, but these two gestures would be just fine. An issue I can see though is that it may conflict with the default Android gestures, since on modern versions you swipe from the left or right of the screen and it acts as if you pressed the back button. And swiping from the bottom acts like the home button. You'd need to find a way to stop that from happening. Also, with my tablet, I could probably see myself using some of these gestures on my desktop as well.

Gestures that swipe from the left and right are problematic on all Android devices that use swipe navigation, as swiping from either the left or right is used as the back gesture.

Gestures that swipe from the left and right are problematic on all Android devices that use swipe navigation, as swiping from either the left or right is used as the back gesture.

Just checked on my device (Pixel 7 Pro, Android 14). The first swipe from any screen edge to the screen center shows the system bars (top status bar and bottom navigation bar) since osu is running in full screen mode. The second swipe calls the back button action (back navigation).

As a result the feature requires more consideration.

Many Android apps are not afraid that swipe gestures will conflict with the OS. If you are using gesture navigation, full screen or not, a left-to-right swipe is the same as a back button. There is no way around it.

I think there should also be an option to swipe from the top to show the toolbar (Ctrl + T).
