Hi,
I want to share with you today - how to trigger one handed mode,
with full screen gestures mode - on, by swiping the bottom of the screen.
So as you know - you can trigger the one handed mode, which is a very useful feature in miui...
by swiping from the home button to one of the other buttons, depending on which side you want to shrink the screen towards.
But if you are like me,
and love the wonderful full screen navigation style...
you don't have navigation buttons, therefore can only use the 'quick ball' to trigger one handed mode, which is not ideal.
This requires no rooting, but will require you to run an adb command on a computer.
Also the apps used are not free.
I will not go into step by step detail because:
1. I'm lazy
2. you need tasker or a similar app compatible with tasker plugins... and I use Automate, which is less common.
So you will need a few (Paid) apps:
1. Gesture control (or similar, but something that allows launching shortcuts)
2. tasker / automate / some other automation app compatible with tasker plugins
3. AutoTools plugin for tasker
Install all those, configure write secure settings permission via adb on a PC as instructed by the plugin (#3)
Once done - create a tasker task that will:
1. use the plugin to change the setting: name= "force_fsg_nav_bar", type= global, value type = int, value = 0
2. wait for a second
3. change the setting back to 1
what this will do is basically show the navigation bar for a second and then hide it again.
Now configure Gesture control app to trigger this tasker task by swiping left or right
you can also tweak around to make it smaller, invisible, customize other gestures & whatever...
(Personally I added 'double tap' to screen off,
'long tap' to launch Native clipboard app,
and 'double tap and hold' to trigger flashlight...)
Done!
You can now swipe the bottom of the screen,
and this will pop up the navbar for 1 sec, so you can swipe again in the desired direction to trigger one handed mode!
