time I haven't been able to find anything on the subject.
Keyevent(3)
Keyevent(26)
Doesnt work. It presses one then the other as would be expected.
My other option would be to have Ankulua write to a separate document with the rgb values that it collects. I haven't started searching for that process yet though.
Thanks for the help.
UPDATE:
So I found a workaround solution to the lack of screenshot ability utilizing a separate app in conjunction with Ankulua.
play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.phoenixstudios.aiogestures
It is pretty easy to get this app up and running.
Enabling service:
You will open the app and see three tabs across the top (Hard Keys, Swipe, Status Bar). When you go to turn on one of the actions (swipe) it will immediately prompt "enable the service in settings > accessibillity". You are able to click the popup banner at the bottom to be redirected to where you need to go. Scroll down and hit the toggle switch for the app. Clicking "Settings" at the bottom of the screen will redirect you back to the app itself.
Choosing your gesture:
Once you are back in the app you want to turn on swipe. I first tried the hard keys but when I ran Ankulua to press the menu button it enacted the original menu action instead of the reprogrammed action of taking a screenshot. So, choose your desired swipe action and a popup window will appear. Scroll down a bit to find "screenshot" as one of the choices. You are now setup and free to close out the app.
Taking your screenshot:
You will notice a little white bump on the side of the screen that you enabled. As expected, swiping from that edge of the screen toward the middle of the screen takes a screenshot. I used a left swipe so swipe(Location(0, 600), Location(50, 600)) successfully took a screenshot.
Having your cake but not always being able to eat it too:
I discovered one issue with this method. For whatever reason the "enable service" turns it self off of my phone quite frequently. I believe it has something to do with my Galaxy S3 though and not the app itself. I use this app on my newer S6 without any issues. (my daughter snapped off the end of a headphone plug in my phone and in trying to "fix" it I broke the function of my last app button)
That is as far as I have ventured with taking screenshots with Ankulua for now so if I discover anything else worth sharing in the future I will update this post again.
