    Hi guys
    Any idea if it's possible to have a keyboard shortcut key to open up the productivity tab?
    I was thinking it might need tasker to accomplish this but I wanted to see if any of you have done this
    Thanks

    No, I think the concept behind the Productivity Tab was to loosely simulate the gesture we all used to love back with BB10.
    So I bring the tab all the way down near the bottom of the screen and keep it very transparent for easy access.

    That's impossible to do.

    I did it with Tasker, it's working beautifully!

    I hit V and up it comes - super quickly!

    Something similar was suggested here and it looks like the person in charge at BlackBerry is liking the idea:

    So basically I have my productivity tab configured on the left hand side (you'll see from the screenshots) and I use a tasker plug-in called TouchTask which basically does the gesture for me when I hit the "V" shortcut on my keyboard. I'll attach the images here so you can see how I have it configured. It works beautifully. I also have done the same for the "N" shortcut to bring down my notification panel (I know the currency key thing, but I frankly use my $ often so I don't want to do that!)

    Then obviously just set your V key to be a tasker task - which is whatever you named the "task" in tasker...

    Thanks a lot @mmmc, will try this out!

    It works perfectly. However, I prefer the productivity tab to be lower. May I know which number to change to bring it down? I tried a few variations but can't seem to get it to work.
