S Pen Button Customization

[vespucci-reporter]

Description:

Hello, I have been using a samsung S6 tablet for a lot of my on the go edits, or when I have somme down time and can contribute but am away from my home computer. I have found the accompanying s pen/ stylus to add a huge amount of precision and speed to my workflow, however my only gripe is that the s pen/stylus button just allows me to change zoom while holding it.

I assume this is intended, however I was wondering if it would be possible to allow this input to be a custom shortcut between perhaps adding a single node or single way (effectively clicking the + and add button for you) as I find I spend more time doing that than adjusting zooms. Jus being able to change it to a vew different selections would be great. Perhaps same for double tap with the pen, although I don't know if thats distinguishable from a regular double tap on your end.

Apologies if this appears to be a silly/niche request.

I actually do most of my editing (on a phone) with a S Pen and have considered adding some more support than using a stylus has currently, so at least it isn't far fetched. What isn't possible was to add anything that requires Samsung proprietary libraries, which IIRC was the case I looked at things a couple of years back.

Anyway I'll give it a another look.

Alas, as expected supporting the button requires a proprietary Samsung library https://developer.samsung.com/galaxy-spen-remote/download.html Integrating that while not impossible, would have some quite far reaching consequences.
