Feature Request: More Gestures for the Pro Button

Hi Niagara Team,

I have a small feature request for the Pro button.

Currently, it only supports the Pull App gesture. It would be great if you could add more gesture directions, such as:

Pull Up

Pull Down

Pull Left

Pull Right

Double Tap

This would allow users to assign different apps or actions to each gesture, making the Pro button much more useful without affecting Niagara's clean design.

Thanks for the amazing launcher!

    This should have been a thing a long time ago, more than themes.

    It's a wonderful idea to support more gestures, at the moment it's very limited and would make a better use case

    I think it would be an ESL implementation. I think it would be a particularly useful implementation and falls within Niagara's philosophy.

    Something like Samsung NavStar. You swipe from button and pick and option, weird it's not implemented

    Thanks for the suggestion! This is already the most upvoted request on the whole board: More Gestures on Niagara Button, which asks for exactly these extra directions on the Niagara button.

    Upvoting there is the best way to push it, since we go through requests roughly by upvotes, and it puts your votes behind the one thread rather than splitting them. You will also get updates when its status changes.

    somewhat related, but I have to restart the launcher often because the formatting randomly gets wonky and I would love to be able to have the ability to restart launcher using the pro button

    somewhat related to this, i wish the scrolling through the alphabet was only available on one side. i am left handed. i have a widget taking up most of the room above my favorited apps and i keep trying to scroll down my favorites but have to put my finger in a very specific spot, it's added a lot of friction and even after several weeks i mess up all the time. i'd love the be able to choose the alphabet being left or right, AND/or be able to toggle on/off scrolling through it on the left or right (or both).
