[request] Open other extension popup

[AeliusSaionji]

Would it be possible to create a gesture that opens ublock origin's popup?
Or perhaps, call uBlock t tell it to perform an action.

Thanks

Sorry, this is not possible because uBlock cannot accept requests from other add-ons.😢

I use uBlock too, so I know how you feel.
Thanks.

Here's an idea: could we use JS to create one or multiple distinct visuals to trigger an automation?

Then we could use gestures to trigger an automation to do anything with any extension.

Like this?
(Smart AutoClicker doesn't work on my phone...)

1. Add a custom gesture.

/** @name ⛔uBlock */
// nop

2. Check Display Command
3. Capture ⛔ emoji with Smart AutoClicker.

Yes that works! I probably will implement this in tasker instead, since autoclicker has a permanent overlay.
