Shortcut to access notification window

[refekt]

This would be a quick way to open the notification window

[rom1v]

Is there any keyevent which opens it?

[refekt]

I'm not entirely sure. I am not an avid programmer, but I have seen it done on emulators like Nox Player.

shortcuts for notifications and quicksettings would be great :-)

a keyevent for notification or quicksettings don't exist, but its working with the adb shell:
Expand status bar:

adb shell service call statusbar 1

Collapse status bar:

adb shell service call statusbar 2

i hope this is helpful.

Thanks for the commands.

I just implemented it on dev branch.

Ctrl+n expands, Ctrl+Shift+n collapses.

Well, it isn't a great idea to implement this shortcut, IMO. Unlike power button, volume button, etc, notification panel can simply be expanded by pull down the top area through mouse. This shortcut will make protocol more complex and not elegant. If someone in the future request a shortcut for turning on and turning off bluetooth, wifi, etc. We still keep implementing it?

Sorry for the differing views.

Thank you for your feedback.

The idea is not to implement every shortcuts requested by any people. The notification panel is often used, and bringing it down with the mouse is "costly". I faced the problem recently (I don't use scrcpy that much), and remembered that feature request, so I implemented it.

I see this shortcut for expanding the notification panel a bit like Ctrl+s for APP_SWITCH: you can do it with the mouse (at least when the buttons are not physical) but it's a useful to have a direct access (for me, direct access to notification panel is even more useful than APP_SWITCH).

@rom1v

Good point! Also Thank you for your explaining.

Sorry for bumping on a closed thread but, this isn't working when on Lock Screen. (or was that intended?)

[rom1v]

scrcpy just calls the AOSP StatusBarManager.expandNotificationsPanel(). If this function does not expand the notification panel on lock screen, it is probably intended.
