[Feature Request] Cursor Right & Left Arrows on Nav Bar - Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I really miss having this from Cataclysm on my Nexus 5 every time the keyboard popped up. Would be amazing if someone could make a flashable zip that could add this to a stock, rooted ROM.

That's good to know but I love how Cataclysm could make this work with any keyboard. I happen to be a fan of the stock Google keyboard and with this setting enabled, you'd get left and right arrow keys on other side of the home button. Best solution I've seen.

Sorry for the camera shot I couldn't get print screen to work on windows8. Any way I think it looks pretty good
To apply scroll all the way to the bottom is in the left corner . I like it looks good
I like much better easier features

how do I get it?
Btw it's for your home pc or the web site scroll all the way down to the bottom it will be in the bottom left corner. It should say xda2010 click on that, options will come up. Press xda 2013 beta there you go
The only problem that I see with it so far is that it seems like the screen is a fixed-width screen, unlike the old theme.
Sucks on win xp using ie8 (work computer)
Wow! Definitely better looking. Thanks I would never have seen it.

[Q] Status bar swipe same as Nexus 7 ?

I have a questions guy.
In Nexus 7 if you want to go to quick setting you just swipe down from status bar at top right if you want to open notification you swipe at the left.
Are there any mod to do the same as Nexus 7?
2 finger swipe is kinda hard you know. Human finger are different length

Can I "hide" the soft keys without pie?

I like having the soft keys always present, as compared to using pie, but I want 3 dots instead of actual icons all the time so it doesn't feel too intrusive. Is this possible?

Depends on the ROM. On most of them you can just theme the navbar icons. So, yes it's possible. Check out the themes and apps forum section.
cheers

[How to] Remove Navigation Bar on 4.4

Thanks to bluecarbon for pointing this out. If you want to remove your navigation bar and use some type of pie controls (I'm using LMT) it can be done with a simple build.prop edit. Make sure you have a backup in case you make an error editing the file and be sure your pie app is up and running before you reboot.
Just go into system and add the following line to the build.prop file at the bottom, save and reboot (you may need to reboot more than once):
qemu.hw.mainkeys=1

I had to reboot twice to get it to work.
yup it worked. thank you so much
You can also do this with GravityBox.
How do you stop the chrome three dotted drop down menu disappearing?

Hiding the buttons

I find the virtual buttons a bit of a nuisance, I would much rather use gestures. I originally wanted to hide them only on my home screen, but it seems it's all or nothing with qemu.hw.mainkeys in build.prop.
I'm fine getting rid of them, however I'm wondering if there is a gesture system I can have instead, for example a swipe from bottom takes me to the home screen?
Edit: I'm on rooted stock 4.3.
I'm using cataclysm ROM which has a unique feature which fades out the buttons after ten seconds in any app. Other wise I think there's an xposed module that can have swipes to navigate.

Thanks man, turns out I was Googling for the wrong thing - once I figured out that they were called navigation bars I came across an app called " GMD Auto Hide Soft Keys" for rooted devices. (For future people)
I'd rather keep with rooted stock for now but I will be sure to keep an eye on it for when I decide to dabble in roms.
