Long Tapping a Quick Setting Button

Hi Joao


Tasker enables adding buttons in the Quick Settings toolbar,
and setting each button to execute a Task.
This is done in the Preferences screen, under the "Actions" tab.

Currently Quick Settings buttons that are created by Tasker, behave like this:
Regular Tap executes the defined task,
and Long Tap opens Tasker's Preferences screen.

The behavior of the second one (Long Tap) is a bit of waste.
Instead of having all Tasker created buttons to lead to the Preferences screen upon long tapping them,
it would be much more useful If we can define for each button, a Long Tap task, in addition to the regular Tap task.
(similar to what happens in a Button element, on a Tasker scene - we have 2 events: Tap, and Long Tap, and each can be set).


Doing this, will double the amount of Tasks that we can call, from Android's quick Settings toolbar.

Thank you very much

Thank you so much João!!

This would be huge!
I guess it shouldn't be too hard, considering AutoNotif already has this feature.
Also, the default behaviour could stay the way it currently is (opening tasker preferences) but the user should be able to change it to perform a task. Thank you João!
