Popup instead of fullscreen when triggered from system buttons

[MXC48-zz]

It would be nice if when we open the application with the shortcuts we only have a pop-up of the microphone for example but not that the whole application opens. I think it would give an impression of speed and really of a more discreet assistant that activates in a corner and waits for instructions.

Here are some examples to illustrate what I said.

Give my editing a mark out of ten 😂

10/10 I'd say ;-)

This is a good idea, thanks for the suggestion

From #122:

Assistant apps like Google Assistant, Alexa, and even some other apps like Google Translate can pop up over the current view with a half-extended window instead of a full screen app.

Has this function been completed?
Where can I check it?

It has not been completed, otherwise the issue would be closed

I arbitrarily modified the file. However, this function was not possible. Can you tell me which file I should modify or if my code is wrong?

<AndroidManifest.xml>**

<activity android:name=".PopupActivity"
           android:theme="@style/Theme.AppCompat.Dialog"
           android:launchMode="singleInstance"
           android:excludeFromRecents="true"
           android:taskAffinity=""
           android:configChanges="orientation|screenSize"
           android:windowSoftInputMode="stateAlwaysHidden|adjustResize"
           android:exported="true">
           <intent-filter>
               <action android:name="android.intent.action.POPUP_ACTIVITY" />
               <category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT" />
           </intent-filter>
       </activity>

        getWindow().setFlags(WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_FULLSCREEN,
                WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_FULLSCREEN);

        setContentView(R.layout.dialog_stt_service);

        final TextView messageView = findViewById(R.id.userInput);

    }

            final Intent intent = new Intent(this, PopupActivity.class);
            startActivity(intent);
        }
    }

@MakeMeCookie sorry for not replying, I missed your comment. Now the app architecture is much different and uses Jetpack Compose. If you still want to implement this feature, let me know (and possibly join the matrix chat so we can discuss more easily: https://matrix.to/#/#dicio:matrix.org
