Add a shortcut/gesture to lock/unlock private space

Hi, I just bought the niagara launcher just because it has support for android 15 private space. I think the launcher is awesome its just that I have a problem with the private space - I cant bind the lock/unlock private space button in the niagara button tap/swipe up.

Although theres an option in the settings to lock the private space when the device lock but unfortunately this would close all the opened private apps and we dont want that because it will discard all the state of the private app

I tried to have a workaround like have a shortcut created using Activity Launcher app and have it bind to niagara button tap/swipe up but I cant find the private space activity

Since these private lock/unlock buttons are already exposed in the niagara launcher list. Would it be nice to have a quick access for it?

Just an idea because I have MIUI on my other device, they have this pinch zoom on the home screen to access the private apps - although I am not sure if this is a feature of the MIUI launcher or the MIUI OS

    I was thinking about something like this too. There is the button and you can do a gesture up. Would be so nice if you could map the Niagra button /w slide up to invoke the hidden private space. Then you could have the same action (when the private space is open) to quickly lock it.
