You're not doing it right.
It's not just passing your hand in front of the sensor.
It detects you want to take the screenshot if you actually touch a wide parcel of the screen with the whole side of your palm, from one side to the other.
Of course, motion must be enabled for this.
Try
Settings- > motion (ensure that it is on ) -> under hand motion -> Check palm swipe to capture..
Even after you have trouble try tutorials in same menu
(Under hand motion tutorial )
Hope it will help !☆★☆★☆★

Wondering how to take screenshots? :banghead:
If like me you were scratching your head how to take screenshots, and pressing a combination of buttons but nothing happened. Check Settings>motion find and enable the screenshot function.
Hold hand perpendicular/vertical on right side of screen, and drag it to the left. Voila it shows you the screen has been grabbed. Find it in your Gallery app.
Hope this tiny guide helps.:thumbup:

You can also:
*) Press and hold the spen button for 2 seconds with the spen on the screen
*) Press and hold home and power buttons

You may find that the motion technique for taking a screenshot might fail if you are in a full screen app
If the Motion is on at setting, sliding palm of you hand from left to right works for me.
What's the best screenshot app for android? all the apps that's in the play store have bad reviews
For me the best will be the built in one. Just Swype the screen from left to right or right to left to capture.
Or use your spen...

Put the edge of your hand on one side and swipe the hand across the screen like it was a handheld scanner. The image will be captured and saved in the Gallery under Screenshots.
For the palm swipe capture make sure it's activated in the motion settings

Setting - motion - select palm swipe to capture (under Hand motion)
for tutorial
setting - motion - Hand motion tutorial - learn about hand motion - palm swipe to capture
I use the palm swipe mostly.
You can also use the S Pen as well if you want.
Its about 3rd down in the list below.

This also gives you the option of annotating the screen grab before you save it :good:

This app does not make hovering work. It just uses the proximity sensor at the top to fake it. There are other apps that do this better. I mainly use the sensor to turn off the screen when I close the cover.

Proximity Screen Off Pro by SHAILESH is the one I use - I tuned it up with the Dev and it works really great if you have the Samsung integrated cover case. But there is one secret to get it to work - the cover does not trigger the the sensor - in fact you can touch the cover and activate things on the screen if the screen is on. So to fix this problem I double sided taped (you can spot glue as well) a card made of paper stock on the inside of the cover and bingo works perfect. My wife had some cool card designs so it actually looks really nice a customized when I open the cover.
There are some tweaks to the timing you need to make as well:
Preferences:
Screen On/Off Modes
Flip/Cover Mode: ON
Timeout 1.5 sec
Enable Screen On using Gest - This lets you wave your hand over the sensor to turn on the screen - nice.
All Settings:
Enable device admin - this is a really nice feature- it allows you to have it unlock your phone when the app is active. It has a widget that I use to turn the service on and off. At home I use the cover, away I do not and the phone locks.
Flip cover fix - No Recognize Delay - ON Delay is 3 secs.
Disable call handling - On
Enable Schedule Start Stop
These are what I found works great for me.
Hi there. Love the phone. Small problem though - I pull the pen in and out, press the side button on the pen, but nothing - no pie menu. Any ideas of what the issue may be ?
You need to hover the pen over the screen so you can see the pointer on the screen. Then press the button and the menu will show up.

I'll add "the button on the s-pen" I had the same problem and it took me a while to figure out the button is on the pen. :laugh::laugh:
I'll also add that in s pen settings there is the following options for when you remove the pen: turn it off when you remove pen, action memo, and air command. 'Air command being the one your referring to' It could possibly be turned off

thanks so much for the help
Guys have anyone of you noticed that quality of screen shots is quiet poor ...its like quiet blurry..can anyone help me out with it...I never felt it on my galaxy note 3 or note 2 or note 8.0..it ruins the whole experience of taking screen shots of important articles and making notes over it...
This seems to be a limitation of the SPen enabled Screen capture only. When using other apps like Screenshot UX, the screen captures (especially the text) look great and are nice and crisp. Samsung needs to fix this issue.

I just tested my tablet by holding the power button and home key to take a screen shot and it looks good, don't know what issue's your having but tablet is sharp.
Take a look of this screenshot...no matter which way u screen shot it...whether by s pen or by holding home and power button text is not very clear

I second this. Same for pen or home+power.
Cheers,
Bjoern
My screenshots from air command are blurry while the ones taken by Home + Power are crisp and half the size than the former.
iiSo say we all!! from my SM- P600
My screenshots via S-pen or Holding the Power+Home are crisp too.
I have the same "issue". Both via S-Pen and Home + Power...
Very strange.
Affy how could yours be different ?

To me it honestly looked no different from my S3. I will have a look properly and will post some pics if I get a chance tonight after work but honestly the times I have taken screenshots the quality seemed pretty good to me whether I was pre-ocupied of just being excited about the S-pen but I'm sure I would have noticed if it was terrible quality like the pic you posted.
Earlier was somehow compressed...take a look at this one...its not very blurry but you cannot call it a crisp one...quiet low quality when compared to note devices..

Yeah the S-pen screenshot isn't very good however the Home+power button screenshot looks pretty spot on to me.
(Make sure you click the image to zoom in)
This is the S-pen Screenshot (Pen top left)

And also the Home+Power Button Screenshot
https://www.dropbox.com/s/nptiw6ya4znmov4/Screenshot_2013-11-30-19-35-40.png
The Home+Power button screenshot looks pretty crisp to me.
Exactly, when taking screenshots with the Spen It will compress it to be used in the image editor.
When using the regular screenshot either swipe or Home+Power its an uncompressed png.

Actually yeah that does make sense to me, however @navjot says both ways produce bad quality screenshots

Small correction, it's under device\display settings.
