shortcutd 0.1-2 is now in extras-testing. Proximity sensor is disabled by default, it can be enabled in the settings applet.
Please test the available features and let us know how they work for you, we will get down to implementing new features.

Mmmh... many feature requests.

You need all of those at the same time?
With only 2 "Buttons" and 4 Combinations?

Hmm... I guess it could help to change it in a fast way...

Maybe, this dream in a modified way could help you: LINK
A couple of configurable buttons... just to switch fast the functionality of the camkey instead of sending keycodes.
Hmm... a configurable combination of just sending keycodes or change what could happened when you press the button the next time? Oooh... I begin to dream again.

Sadly, it's still only a blueprint. A fast mockup. Strange Idea... nothing else.

the thing i like to see, and then we even have 1 more solution for the button is "the second click"
so now we have:

"short click" show dashboard
"long click" show menu

i would like to add:

"second (short) click" show desktop (or what ever)

and the second click just looks what is now visible, and if the dashboard is there (which is the short "first" click) then it will execute the second click

this way you can very vast toggle between stuff.
then i would have dashboard and desktop as the first and second click..

@Helmuth, Those were just ideas that could be implemented, because not all of us want the same things and I think the power of this app is the ability to customize it. With those features, most of us would be able to make the few buttons to work exactly like we want.

Regarding that extra menu of buttons - that would be very nice too. Then those shortcuts that are not needed so often can be placed there. I think that's a good approach for having more shortcuts at the same time.

These kind of things are huge, because they make using the whole device so much quicker. I cannot describe how happy it makes me to see people working at solutions like this.

Great stuff and thanks to all for getting it to testing repo.

Is it intended that the camera app (standby) launches with the long press? Anyway to supress it?

Installed the lasted version and it works great.

Is it possible to add "answering an incoming phone call" to the shortcut?

Thanks!

You're not supposed to fully press the camera button. Use a light press (as in focusing the camera) and it will work as intended. AFAIK there's no practical way to override the default behavior for fully pressing the key.

If a dbus method to accomplish that exists. I'm not aware of such a method, didn't find any information.

If a direct function call is not available, is it possible for shortcutd to mimic a screen press at the right location according to the orientation of the phone? Am I asking too much?

Theoretically yes (this is currently used to access menu), but it might get glitchy/unreliable under certain conditions. For example, it takes a while for the phone app to turn so the accelerometer might report a different orientation at this point.
