I've seen here at the beginning a discussion that the developers was not able to check what application is currently running in the foreground, if the task-switcher is currently opened and how to bring a other application in the foreground.
In my other thread (
LINK
) I asked for similar stuff. And accidentally we found a way how to check if the task switcher dashboard or the desktop is currently running. (the script to check what application is currently running simply crashes) This happens at one of the Desktops and at the Task Manager.
So this way it would be possible to notice what application is running at the moment the camera button is pressed. Store this in a small history of 2 Items. If the
active_window.property_get
crashed the task switcher or the desktop is shown. In this case the shortcutd application could switch to the second task in the history list and flip the items. If we got the name of the current task simply push it to the top of the 2 Items stack.
This way we could easily switch between 2 Tasks (at example notes and calendar) back and forth simply by pressing the camera button twice. This would be great.
Perhaps thp or hopbeat has some minutes to look into it. This would be a very cool feature.
