Trigger: Swipe Screen

This trigger will fire when a specific swipe action is performed on the screen. It creates a hidden swipe-able area at the top left or top right of the screen that can detect swipe gestures.

Options

Start Area: Choose where the swipe begins:
- Top Left: Swipe starts from the top left corner of the screen
- Top Right: Swipe starts from the top right corner of the screen

Swipe Direction: Choose the type of swipe gesture:
- Swipe Across: Horizontal swipe from the selected corner towards the opposite side
- Swipe Diagonal: Diagonal swipe from the corner towards the opposite bottom corner
- Swipe Down: Vertical swipe downward from the selected corner

Configuration

When configuring this trigger, a visual overlay is displayed on screen showing:

The touch area where the swipe must begin (highlighted region in the selected corner)
An arrow indicating the required swipe direction

The swipe areas are invisible during normal device operation but remain active and ready to detect the configured gesture.

Notes

This trigger requires the "Draw Over Other Apps" (overlay) permission to create the invisible touch detection areas.
Multiple swipe triggers can be configured with different start areas and directions for different actions.
The swipe detection areas are very small and positioned in the corners to avoid interfering with normal app usage.
Works alongside other screen-based triggers and does not conflict with normal touch gestures.
