I have yet to find much practical use for the Pen Wendow, but for multi-window, I love using Chrome and Gmail side by side. If I click on a link in an email, it will open up on the other side of the screen.
I imagine YouTube and any other productivity app would great if you want to watch or listen to something while working on something else.

I use ezpdf to read cases and s note to take notes in class. Then I use pen window with hangouts and calculator on top of them

I can't seem to open chrome with multi - window? It was working fine yesterday but when I tried it this morning it had stopped I think it was because I did a chrome update, any of yous having this problem?

I currently have the original note 10.1. with the Play Store App Multi Window Manager, from the play store, I can multi-windows Any app at all. Also, besides doing side by side multi-window, I can cascade numerous multi-window apps.
Can this new model do that? From the pictures and the manual, they have made a lot of changes to that feature.
Thanks

On rooted device you can open any app side by side. Cascading option is gone, but you can add any app to pen window list.

OK, but from your screencap, it does look like you can at least open more than just two side by sides, Correct? Can't understand why they would take options (cascade) away. Makes little sense to me. I use a Multi Window Manager on my current Original Note 10.1, so I do know about being able to add pretty much any app at all. The one I use it not yet compatible with the 10.1 2014, but there is another that is.
Thanks for the reply

Yes, you can open more than 2. It is similar to original Note's cascading option but now it's controlled through pen window. There is a program to add any app you want to that window list.

I would like to add the usefulness of GMD Gesture Control, not just for tablets in general, but for Pen Window as well. You need to be rooted, but without root (and having every app available on Pen Window), Pen Window seems pretty useless anyway. With Gesture Control you can add a gesture to open Pen Window directly, which saves a lot of steps. I don't always use the S Pen, and I always hated the fact that to use Pen Window, I had to take the S Pen out, press the button, select Pen Window, draw on the screen, THEN select the app, and put the S Pen back in, all with a few seconds of lag sprinkled in between. Too many steps to make it useful in many situations.
As for usage, I mostly use it when I need to reference something while in another app (documents in Evernote, timer app, calculator, etc), and don't want close the current app for whatever reason. I like the minimize function of Pen Window, as I can just minimize when I don't need it, and open it with one press when I do; especially useful when you have to reference it multiple times while working.
To sum it up, Pen Window without root = useless (too few apps), Pen Window w/ root, Pen Window Manager (or equivalent app) and GMD Gesture Control = ultimate win.

this app looks interesting (and states it doesn't need root): https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=mobi.xperiacle.penwindowlauncher
"PEN Window Launcher allows you to invoke the Pen Window drawer without using the Spen. It removes the hassle of having to take out your Spen, hover and click the Spen on the screen, clicking the Pen Window icon and then drawing a window just to open the Pen Window drawer. With this app, it takes you just one to two clicks with your finger to open the Pen Window drawer. How more productive is that."

is it true that the limit is 6?

[App Library] Most Unique Note Enhancing Apps

So I have been looking for new and cool apps that really compliment the Note II and I think that it's worth having a thread to have a list of the top apps to help with productivity, maximize use of the larger screen and overall get the most out of the Note II.
One that I've recently found and that is perfect for the Note II is 'Relaunch'. Screen shot below:

}
This app is super cool and allows for quick app changing in a new intuitive way. With the S Pen and big screen it's super useful.
Another good app is Floating Browser! Allows you to do something similar to Samsung's Pop up Browser, with full flash and content (more robust)

Let's get a good running list.
Just saving second post in case the list gets long.
There is also a floating terminal app. It costs a few dollars, but if you're a terminal junkie, that's probably worth it.
I think there's also a floating calculator.
What else do we want to see in floating windows? There's demo code available for that-- so hopefully we'll see more applications like that.
I recently discovered that the Pulse widgets, with the right homescreen app-- (with resizeable grid and the option to overlay widgets)
Make for a slick looking homescreen page devoted to news.
And of course, with an S-Pen, drawing apps like MagicMarker and Sketcher are invaluable.
Some people may find this split/floating keyboard useful :
There's also the WOW split browser, but since we have MultiWindow, its obsolete.
I thought I might have a few more suggestions, but that's really all I have for now.
GpcSOFT kicks so much ass.
Super Manager and Super Video are both really great apps.
And you can do much much more with Super Video.
If you use a wallet case or a flip cover, I found Intellicover - it allows you to turn off and on the screen just by opening and closing your screen. It can even disable the lockscreen on opening the screen.
Taskarou is another one that I've been using frequently.
I like LilyPad HD (Pop Up Floating Chat) on my Note.
It's a floating messenger client, which lets you chat with your Facebook, Google Talk or Windows Live Messenger contacts from anywhere in your phone.
been using swipepad on my previous phones, but i like the looks of relaunch. ill be trying that
Wave Launcher is my pick for launching apps, plus you can put widgets and have access to them no matter what you have on screen
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.mobilemerit.wavelauncher
Overscreen is my favorite floating browser, although I had to sideload it since the market doesn't want to play nice
Sketch-a-bit has been on every device I've owned that runs android, if you like drawing then just go download it, it's like it was made for the Note, even though it's from 2010
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.superfiretruck.sketchabit
I posted a couple really nice apps in another thread you should check out. One invokes the pop up browser, another let's you set up commands for the spen, and light manager to adjust stock led notifications. Links are in that thread.

[APP][FLIP LAUNCHER] quick app access [2.1+]

Android devices are meant for multitasking. Some devices, like the Galaxy Note 2,
are specifically designed to launch two apps, or more, at the same time.
The Google Play Store also offers a variety of multitasking apps to allow
you to multitask on your device. The FlipLauncher app is a multitasking app
that allows you to group your favorite apps or shortcuts and access them
from wherever on your device.
get the extremely usefull app HERE
When you launch FlipLauncher in portrait mode, 6 colored bars (i use one) will appear
on the left side of your screen. These bars serve as your virtual drawer
containing your apps and shortcuts. Just swipe to open those bars.
You can set up to 4 apps or shortcuts on each bar, giving you a total
of 24 apps or shortcuts.

"lightbox_next": "Next",

"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
The app also allows you to personalize the bars on your device’s screen.
You can change a bar’s color, adjust its width, set its placement, and
set its opacity. You can even disable one or two bars. These virtual drawers
really look like the Multi Window feature of the Galaxy Note 2 but arranged horizontally.
The app also has a different layout when you hold your device in landscape mode.
In this screen orientation, 4 colored bars (again i only use one) will appear on the left
side of the screen. Each bar allows you to place 6 apps or shortcuts, giving you still a
total of 24 apps.Just like the previous orientation, you can still change a bar’s color,
transfer the bar to the opposite side, adjust its width, and set its opacity. You can also
remove some bars according to your liking.

Just got done downloading and messing around with it. A+ app. I love this app. It is so nice to be able to have all those shortcuts right at your fingertips regardless of what screen or app you are in.
Thanks for your hard work.
at first I was thinking UGH...Another Launcher. I love my ADW.. But this is is a VERY cool app. and the best part is is works alongside my ADW!!! ill have to load it up later this evening. I like a clean home screen.
I'm having issues with your app. It allows me to pull the tray out once but then after that when untouched the tray I just get a small haptic feedback and nothing else. I have to close it.

Found this App, in the market. Comparative to the one listed earlier, but I find this one easier to use.

will it work alongside Nova Launcher?
i'm running nova launcher on my gNote and love it, but i'd like to have this running in addition to it. i hesitate to run two launchers at the same time, and am wondering if this hesitation is justified? (i see the comment above about ADW launcher but my question still stands if it's a good idea or not)

Adding apps to Multi Window?

Hey guys. I'm just wondering how to enable any app to the Multi Window sidebar? I've rooted my Tab Pro 8.4, but I don't know where to begin. On my Note 10.1, I had used the Multi Window Manager, but that was specific to that device.

I doubt it. The apps have to be coded to support windows instead of full screen.

It has been possible on every Samsung device that has multi-window. I have all apps available on Note 8 and 10.1. It could be done through an app or using xposed. It's a question of time to get it on 8.4.
mw apps manager
There's a app on the play store called mw apps manager. It let's you add apps to the split view but pop up windows doesn't work for most apps.

Multi window manager in the playstore doesn't work with kit kat yet. The developer said he's working on it.

As the tab pro tablets multiwindow tray combine both the floating and dual/quad multiwindow, if your device is rooted, you could could use the MW Apps Manager to add more apps for dual/quad multiwindow and use the Pen Window Manager to add same apps to be able to run in floating mode. If your device is not rooted you could use MW-Pen App Enabler to add apps to both modes.

Does Pen Window Manager work on TabPro devices that have no pen?
How do I drag and drop items onto the multi window sidebar? I clicked the edit button, click and hold on an app, try to drag it over, nothing happens. Same thing with try to remove an app from the sidebar.
Okay I can confirm I can add any app to multi window on my unrooted tab 8.4 using the mw - pen window enabler linked on page one. I had to buy the pro key but easily worth the £1.30 which I plan to email Samsung to get it back. If it's possible for a guy to make this app why can't they enable it by default.

I ended up getting it to work. Had to go into settings and turn off multi window and turn it back on.

Which xposed module do you use to enable multiwindow for all apps? Does it support floating windows, too?
I believe the xposed module is called wanam xposed and is a all I one touch wiz tweaker. The multi window editor is in the interface tab I believe
I'm using wanam exposed and you can change multi windows apps there

Multi window Pop-up question

Hi,
The main thing I love the Galaxy Notes is the multi-window feature. Especially the pop-up window option.
I've read that since Android Nougat that's built-in into Android (it's called Freeform there). But the main difference is that Freefrom just give you a small pop-up window with every item in the app still being very large like it was full screen (the same thing Windows computers do when you make an app smaller). The Samsung approach is a pop-up windows which actually make every aspect of the app look smaller. I hope I'm making myself clear.
Will the Note 8 use the Android implementation of the pop-up window functionality, or it's own Samsung implementation?
Thanks!

I donno, you should ask note 8 peeps not us.
I think you may not be explaining the Note 8.0 multi window properties well.
I disable mini app from tray in portrait mode, and only use multi window when I drag particular apps from the tray.
Then resize the top or bottom window accordingly to the app that does not get squishy. Not all apps resize, like calculator is big.
In landscape mode I have options to choose cards between the two apps. Any more apps in windows becomes troublesome with switching. My fingers are too big.
Task manager does all I need for most apps between switching.

How do you mean, this is the Note 8 forum so who are you then
Here are pictures of what I mean.
Samsung does this:

"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Android does this:
When you resize the pop-up window with Samsung's interface, the app stays in full screen, but the window gets smaller, so everything about the app gets smaller (smaller font, ...).
When you you that with Android Nougat built-in interface, everything in the app stays the same (font size, ...) but the window gets smaller. This forces you to scroll inside the window to be able to see the whole app.
I've had the chance of testing the Note 8, and apparently Samsung doesn't scale the content of the app, only the app window. Is there a way to get the app to scale as well?
You guys have a phone not a Note 8.0
I get scaling... though I am on KK on a Note 8.0
What is cool is the Tab 4 drawer on the Note 8.0 is smaller and auto launches all apps from it in a window, so you don't need to drag.

Question Possible gestures on homescreen?

Many of us need to make use of the taskbar functionality and hence, are forced to make the switch to one UI home from our favorite launchers.
I am looking to add some homescreen gestures to quickly access apps for eg. Double tap to email, swipe up to google keep etc.
Anyone knows how closest we can get to having these gesture shortcuts using one ui?
Not a simple way unfortunately. Miss the Nova shortcuts I used to use. But the task bar is kinda worth it for me at least at the moment.
Yeah. Totally. Taskbar is almost indispensable.
I wonder why samsung didn't add native gestures to the home ui.
Check out the other thread where there's a solution identified to having both the Taskbar + Nova. I'm still sticking with One UI (for now!) because I don't want to lose the real estate of the nav keys on the home screen, Nova always refreshes/lags when you open the inner diplay, and Nova doesn't use the inner display efficiently if you want to have it mirrored on the outer display and look reasonable.
The one thing I'm missing with One UI is the gestures, for me it's more about replicating a gesture to call on Sesame Search or Finder search with two-finger swipe down, which is muscle memory for me. I have the Sesame widget on my home screen but if I'm not on the first page, then I have to go home and then click the widget - meh.
Otherwise I'm totally OK with One UI, I've managed to have custom icons the way I like and the variable grid sizes, while not ideal, are sufficient, all without the current Nova downsides on the F4.
The nova + taskbar option you mentioned is not exactly the full taskbar experience.
For gestures, use one hand operation app and have side swipes anywhere on the device.
The muscle memory thing, yeah! That's difficult to argue against.

Fair enough, works for me, after all can get to pretty much everything using sesame, but understand why. If you drag the sesame icon to a screen side and search for app/whatnot and press enter the action opens in that screen space as well.

It's just about clicks. I don't want to search for Phone, Spotify, Outlook, Signal or Camera 1000x a day , but you make a valid point too!
I've been searching high and low in the Play Store for a broad gesture app, but zero luck so far.
Camera = dbl power, can't remember the last time didn't launch cam that way. So suppose that's the one I'm using

I don't take that many pictures, i guess it's just always there (in the dock) if the phone is on so don't need to even think about it. Going to give it a try though, probably easier to get used to having sesame always in the dock and reminding myself to double-press the power button for a pic, than the alternative of tracking down sesame to find an app 100x a day!
