Description: Tested only on the Jolla Phone (2026) — This patch adds some options to customize the close-app swipe gesture:


​• Full-width area: Swiping down anywhere along the top edge closes the app, including around the notch. On notched devices, the notch itself still opens the top menu.
• Disable notch area: Disables the top menu swipe from the notch itself (requires Full-width and a notch).
​• Widen area: Shrinks the top menu's zone so the rest of the top edge closes apps. On notched devices, the zone shrinks to the notch width; otherwise, to the middle third of the screen.
​• Hide closing hints: Hides the edge highlight bars shown while swiping to close.
​

***Hasn't been tested on anything other than the Jolla Phone (notch), so Use At Your Own Risk!
