Did a factory reset on my Note 4 last night because it was starting to get laggy. Anyway, after the reset I'm setting everything back up and I noticed this new menu option when I long press certain apps in my drawer. Maybe it's been like this forever and I just never noticed, but it's new to me and I don't like it. (GET OFF MY LAWN!)

Anyway to disable this so that a long press just gives me the standard Nova options instead?

This feature was added a few updates ago. I personally don't use it but it seems there is a settings menu for this in Nova, under Gestures & Inputs

*edit - I thought I saw an option to disable it but I guess I was seeing things!

Yeah, those are the shortcuts for in-app actions. As far as I know there's no setting in Nova to disable this feature.
 
I figured it was already there and I just never noticed it. Checked gestures and inputs settings but no way to disable it. Doesn't matter much, it's not interfering with anything, it just caught me off guard. Thanks.
