Gesture navigation

In general, Everywhere Launcher also works with gesture navigation, but there are some things to consider.

Android Q will only excluding a maximum of 200dp from each edge from back navigation. Otherwise, apps could exclude both full edges and completely break the back navigation.

This means, that if the sum of the heights at each side should not exceed 200dp you won’t have problems. BUT if you use more or bigger handles you may face problems. Following needs to be considered:

Requesting too much area exclusion area will cause the topmost handles not to have any exclusion as Android grants the exclusions from bottom to top

So following can be deduced from this:

• make sure that handles on the left/right are not higher than 200 dp in total (200dp per side)
• handles at the bottom/top can be used without any limitation

To solve problems based on gesture navigation you can do following:

• disable gesture navigation (and use the buttons and/or and action on a handle for back navigation)
• make handles on the left/right smaller or use less (and use more gestures per handle)
