any app to add custom virtual buttons? - Page 2

Menu Button works for me on a Note 5. Thank heavens, because the nav ball/back/nav ball combo just to hide the keyboard in a text editor is painful. The back button is far to hard too reach. Anyway menu button solves it.

Onyx comes with a virtual back button. Just swipe up from button right corner. Its changeable under settings. Works well.

If you broke the Onyx settings (pm disable com.onyx) you can switch your buttons around in /data/data/com.android.systemui/gestures_config

Code:

{"displayIndicator":false,
 "enable":true,
 "enableBehindKeyboard":true,
 "enableThreePoint":false,
 "guestConfigMap":
 {"gestures_bottom_left":"BACK",
  "gestures_bottom_middle":"HOME",
  "gestures_bottom_right":"TASK_SWITCH"},
 "indicatesHeight":50,
 "indicatesTransparency":50,
 "indicatesWidth":50,
 "preventMiscontact":false,
 "slideEnable":false,
 "slidingDistance":100}

(Formatted to be legible.)
I can't seem to find any gesture settings in the stock Android settings.

<rant> We used to have settings in XML and SQLite databases. When did this JSON stuff start creeping in? Don't get me started on Onyx using MMKV for settings.

Json is all the rage, for sure.

Always visible scroll button is a good app. I make it autoscroll about a page and catch it manually when I want it to stop scrolling.
