I'm running Launcher Pro, I have my notification bar hidden, and I'd like to have a shortcut on the launcher to open the notification bar. I'm not sure how to go about doing this.
I tried to go through Launcher Pro's activity list, but I didnt see anything for the notification bar. I could probably figure out how to create a Launcer Pro shortcut if I knew which command was being executed to open the notification bar.
The alternative is to press the menu key and then the notification button, but pressing two things is harder than simply pressing one...
Any help would be appreciated.
Pretty sure you can map it to the home button

You can do it through LauncherPro. When you click on the LauncherPro dock, select Swipe gesture action and then you can pick open notification bar. Then for the button on the dock you just set this to, you can swipe your finger up and it will open your notification bar
You have a couple options for this.
1:
A. Long press any of the icons on your Launcher.
B. Select "Swipe gesture action"
C. Select "Open notifications"
D. Now when you swipe up on that icon, the notification bar will open.
2:
A. Press "Menu"
B. Press "Preferences"
C. Press "Behavior Settings"
D. Press "Home key action"
E. Press "Open/Close notifcations"
F. Now when you press the home key, the notification bar will open.
G. You can set it to still send you to your home screen first by selecting "Home key to default screen" on the "Behavior Settings" page.
I knew there would be smart people here who had figured this out. These worked and solved my problem. Thank you!

Really annoying! Any ideas?
What I have mine set like,
Under softkeys settings:
Softkeys Service >
- Run Service - Unchecked
- Run at Boot - Unchecked
Virtual Home Button >
- Normal/Long Press - Launcher Pro (Or whatever Launcher you prefer)
Physical Home Button >
- Set Single Tap to Softkeys, Double to Launcher
Other settings are tailored to Taste/Preference.
What this will do is disable the Popper button (which I hated) but allow you to see the Softkeys menu whenever you tap the N button, and straight to your homescreen with a double tap. This will disable the DPad thing along with it.
Long press the popper

Hi,
I've tried to do this but now my N button does not perform any action. I used home switcher to make soft keys my default launcher, but the N button is not working at all. It does, however, wake up the NC from sleep, but once the NC is on, the N button stops working. Can you help me with this?
Im on a simple rooted NC (using BN 1.1) with autonooter and I have Zeam and Softkeys installed.
Help!!!!!. How do I get out of full screen zeam?
I found the flag and set and now I now longer have the battery and navigation screen on the bottom so I can no longer go back to preferences and turn full screen off. I have button savior turned on but zeam does not recognize the menu button so I am stuck. I am running on a NC version 1.1.0 with Autonooter 3.0. Please Help. I find it pretty stupid that you can't access a menu to turn off full screen.
I usually assign an up swipe to show/hide the notification bar. Can you long press on the desktop and get a preferences menu?
Nope, I assume by upswipe, you mean swiping from the bottom up but that didn't work. Tried swiping right to left and tried the long press. Nothing happens. I guess I may have to restore the data file from titanium but I was hoping to find another way to this.
Long pressing on one of your home screens should bring up a menu that has 3 options: "Add Item", "Set Wallpaper", and "Preferences". Selecting "Preferences" should bring you to the Zeam Preference menu.

Thank you. I tried the long press on the main home screen and nothing happened. I had to go to the third page and then do the long press. I guess because I have some apps and widgets running on the main screen. Anyway I got it back. Thank you for your help.
I enjoy that it is easy to access the themer menu easily, but it triggers very frequently when I am using the dialer widget. Is there any way to disable the menu?
Have had same issue as have others m8,the developers are looking into it
For the moment, you can uncheck "Lock homescreen Widgets" in Advanced Settings > Desktop, I think that's a little bit more slowly to appear.

The problem is that Themer has "double tap" for Themer Menu in the Gestures. When using the Dialer widget you type the first 2 numbers and it thinks you double tapped. Wish I could disable this gesture.

Hi,
Hold down on the homescreen - Themer Settings - Gestures - Double Tap - select the "X" at the top of the screen. Done

Well I find that it triggers much too easy as only a long press menu as well. In your case, just disable the double tap gesture in the settings.
But yea, that menu is popping up all the time for me when I don't want it to. Would like more settings for this. I have it set to pop up with long press on the home button. That is good enough for me. No need for it on the screen. An option to disable would be great.
Also would like an option to get rid of the red X on long presses when widgets are unlocked.

This looks long, but it's not.
STEP 1:
Say to Bixby: "open bixby settings"
Scroll all the way down to: Bixby key
Touch and select: Don't open anything
STEP 2:
Install Button Remapper: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=flar2.homebutton&hl=en
Install ADB on PC: https://wiki.lineageos.org/adb_fastboot_guide.html
Follow Button Remapper's setup instructions for ADB
STEP 3:
Say to Bixby: "open navigation bar settings"
Enable: Hard press Home button
This is the invisible Home button that you can press anytime no matter what app you're in. Set your preferred sensitivity level. I set mine to 5 so I don't accidentally press it in other apps.
STEP 4:
Install Nova Launcher: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.teslacoilsw.launcher
Go to: Settings > Look & feel > Notification Bar > Hide navigation bar > ENABLE
STEP 5:
Say to Bixby: "open fullscreen apps"
Look for all apps that don't have the sub-label: 'This app is optimized to run in full screen`
Enable those apps
CONCLUSION:
Set 1 press = Back
Set 2 presses = Recents
Set long press = Bixby
Use the "Hard press Home button" = Home
Profit!
Cool, thanks a lot
Hi.
I have updated my LG G6 to Android Pie.
Now there is an option to change NavBar from 3 buttons to "Gesture and buttons" (see attached picture).
How "Gesture and buttons" works is when you tap Middle button, it goes to Home screen. When tap and hold, it opens Google Assistant. And if I am in a app, then next to middle button appears a Back button.
As I do not care for Google Assistant, I have disabled it. Now, when I tap and hold Middle button, it does nothing.
Is there an option to disable Back button and change Middle buttons behavior that a tap is Back and tap and hold is Home?
Thank you.
P.S. I am rooted and Magisk installed.
