long click action for "Widget - Clickable Actions"

Post by AMChris » 19 Nov 2014 08:36

I just thought it would be create to have 'long click actions'
for the actions one can use on widgets (in addition to the normal click actions).

This would be useful for 2 reasons
- you could prevent unintended clicks on the lock screen by using long click actions
- you would double the number of possible actions by using both short AND long click actions
(eg. short click = start/stop timer, long click = set new timer intervall)

Hope you like the idea.

best regards
Chris

I don't think this could work. Most launchers use a long press on a widget to "grab" the widget for resizing or moving.
So a long press will probably not be seen by the widget...
