Android Launcher has a handy feature of automatically launching an app when a folder is clicked on, the folder opens on another action (up genture). It is best seen here:

Any idea on how to do this within Lightning Launcher?
Thanks!

This can be done by creating a folder and fill it up with your shortcuts.
Change the properties of the shortcut Icon and selection the EVENTS ection.
For the Long Tap you can add "Open a Folder" and select the folder ( probably the current Label name ).
Then change the Tap to the "Launch an app you would like to launch ( doesn't have to be inside the folder ) and change the icon and label name in the TEXT and ICON section.

This script may be handy to achieve that effect:
https://www.lightninglauncher.com/wiki/ ... first_item
It allows to set an action to open the first item in a folder.. I would setup swipe up to open the folder and tap to this script (launch first app)..
With a little modification you can also take the icon of the first app in the folder and assign it to the folder itself ..
