This is a relatively small thing, but keeps annoying me. When I, for example, pull down the menu in order to close all applications in the switcher, the option "close all" is not selected even though there are no other items in the menu. It's annoying that one can pull the menu down "too much" that makes the single item not selected. It's now somehow too hard to hit that menu item. I hope that someone gets the idea :)

Could be fixed with this https://together.jolla.com/question/2834/pulley-menu-would-stop-at-the-last-item-in-the-list/

with single item pully or pushup menu - maybe yes, but otherwise - beware the dragons. Too much accidental triggering of a command, already.

I have another follow on suggestion based on this.

In the Email client, the pulley menu is ordered as so.

Sort By:

Select emails

Update

Create new email

It's really annoying that the most used option (Update) is stuck in the middle of the list and requires me to look at the phone to make sure that I am selecting the right option when I want to update my mails.

I think that Update should be put on top of the list (as below) and when you drag past it on the Pulley menu, you should automatically Update your e-mail's. This means that I can update my mail at anytime with one fluid motion without even looking at my screen.

I agree on that one, too. On Android you can just swipe down to update Gmail.

Should the update be the first on on the menu list to support the user based on current pulley menu behavior the best?

Currently the flick gesture to open just opens the pulleymenu, but doesn't trigger any menu item.

In common inbox view the update all is actually on top of the menulist and the flick to open it fails at it's current implementation.

Better would be to add possibilty to change the number and sequence of the pulley menu items within the mail app via system settings.

The feature you crave for is already implemented in some "single Item Pulleys". You can flick to dismiss an alarm, ignore or answere a call. I just tried. So it would be nice to reformulate your question to mirror that this feature is not fully implemented everywhere right now. Alike [feature request] make all "single Item Pulley Menues" flickable / selectable with only one swipe.

Awesome, didn't actually know that feature was there. Would be cool to be able to define a default action for pulley menus.
