I am missing two actions from the conventional virtual navigation bar:
Double tap on the recents button to switch between the last two opened apps
Notification menu pull down button
Is there a way to set the actions associated to the gestures in the off-screen navigation button?
It that were possible, I would reconfigure the swipe left to the action 1 and swipe down to the action 2 above.

There is a 1 or 2 sec delay when I press the Recents key and the recent apps show up. I used Gravity for Lollipop Xposed module to test changing it to double tap and it opens up immediately. The same happens for anything that is assigned to single press be it Menu, recent apps etc. All open immediately on double tap but have a delay with single press. Is there a way to remove this delay by editing some config file or by using some app/xposed module?
OK so I use this substratum theme that gives my the pixel 2 navigation bar on my note 8. The only problem is that when I press a key on the navigation bar it registers twice for some reason. (I.e I press the back button once and it backs out twice.)

Hi,
I have a short question - is it possible to customize fingerprint scanner gestures in the P10? Is there a mod or something to do that? I can't stand current selection, single tap should always be 'home'. My perfect set of gestures would look like this:
single tap - 'home'
swipe left - 'back'
swipe right (or up) - 'multitasking/recent apps'
swipe down - pull down the shortcut panel
tap and hold for 0,5 sec - screen off
double tap - toggle between recently used apps (P8 had this! Even bare bones Android has such function)
Funny, I've got the phone on order, and your suggested gestures are exactly what I'm after; seems logical...
Hopefully someone does find a way. It's stupid how it's been set up currently

Check out the double tap mods that have been made in the past on other phones, might be possible to check what was edited or added.
You'll get used to the default settings anyway. I tend to use the back button far often than Home so for me it makes more sense that a short tap works as Back. But yes, EMUI does not provide a comprehensive set of customizations.
I tried the new navigation gesture with "Swipe from sides and bottom" but both the left an right swipes act as "back button", I cannot bring the recent apps screen on with the side gesture.
How to fix this ?
You get recent apps when you swipe from bottom like for the Home but do not release the finger for one more second.
Is there a way to make the NB "icons" smaller?
Is there a way to add Screenshot to either the NB or as a quick touch button, besides the vol down/power method?
I don't know how to make the icons smaller but regarding your second question,
Quick Settings - Apps on Google Play
Fully exploit the potential of quick settings
play.google.com
this app can add any settings to quick tile. Just search for 'screenshot' and tap 'Enable tile'.
You can also take a screenshot from the 'Recents' menu. Swipe up slowly from the bottom and there will be an option for screenshot.
thanks. I'll try the app. The slow swipe doesn't work. Perhaps because I have 3 buttons engaged instead of gestures?
If you use the 3 button navigation, tap on the square one (right button) which will bring up the 'Recents' menu. The slow swipe was for if you use gesture navigation so it's the same thing.
got it
