Well I achieved precisely this under Mavericks with no problems but to
be honest I disabled all activities when I upgraded to Yosemite as there
was a suggestion that Activities were setting up a Voiceover Performance
lag and I concluded it was no real hardship to press the left and right
cursor keys to turn Quick Nav on and off. It may be then a possibility
that a problem was introduced in Yosemite but I will check later when I
am on my Mac.
But yest in theory there should be no difficulties with setting up
activities to have the status of quick nav disabled or enabled when Mail
or Safari are loaded.
You may have to be more specific about what steps you took in setting up
the activity for us to comment on whether you are doing anything wrong.

Hi,
I want to set up my Mac so that the state of the quick nav toggle is changed
automatically when apps gain focus. I want it to be on in Safari, and off in
Mail.
I tried to create an activity associated with the Mail program, in which I
disabled quick nav. However, when Mail gains focus, the status of quick nav
remains unchanged. I tried to create a second one that enabled quick nav and
associated it with Safari thinking both might need to exist, but the state of
the quick nav toggle doesn’t change when I command tab between the two apps.
Is what I want to do possible, and should I be using activities to try and
accomplish it? If so, does anyone have any idea what I might be doing wrong?
Thanks,
Ed
