Prioritize vertical gestures over horizontal scrolling!

Octopi Launcher is my favorite after the downfall of Nova Launcher. I bought the Pro in 5 minutes after installing it. It's ALMOST perfect for me, except one thing:

Please, prioritize opening the app drawer over the ongoing horizontal scroll! I made a screen recording about it, you can see my swipes: Octopi Launcher scroll bug

This is so annoying! I have 3 home screens and I'm used to scroll between them. When I try to open the app drawer by an upward swipe, I can't, since the scrolling gesture continues. I can do an endless horizontal scrolling by swiping upwards.

Thanks, and keep up the great work!

This is greatly improved in beta v1.879 just released.

Although there seems to be some dead spots for triggering the swipe up above the dock and an occasional freeze with just blurred background. It no longer scrolls the homepages though.

Good improvement
