From scrapbook to gallery? - Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl

When I select an area of the screen with the S-pen lasso, I can copy the image to the scrapbook.
However, this image doesn't show up in the gallery. (When I do a whole screen capture, it does show up there).
Is there any way to make the image captured show up in some folder on the gallery?
The reason I ask is that I'd like to import these images into Papyrus, and the image importer there only allows a limited number of apps to choose the image. One of them is gallery, so if Icould make the scrap appear in the gallery, that would solve my problem. Or, maybe there is some other app that works with Papyrus. For now, the best I found is exporting the scrap to Dropbox, and then pasting from Dropbox - a bit too coomplicated...

Long press on the image you want moved in Scrapbook and this pops up...

I use the Share Via function to put them into either LectureNotes or Snote. Papyrus doesn't come up in the window. If you are not "set" in using just Papyrus I'd give LectureNotes a shot

Nice! So I have to do the following operations:
1. Laso
2. Select scrapbook for receiving the image
3. open scrapbook app
4. long click on image for save in galery
5. open papyrus
6. select image tool, galery
7. import image from Scrapbook folder.
Almost bearable... is there any shortcut one can make (I notice you have scrapbook in a window. Maybe if I had scrapbook in one window and papyrus in another?)
I guess best is if Papyrus would accept scraps...

I use lecture notes quite a lot. But try this: download Adam Smith's "the wealth of nations" in pdf. Then import
it into a lecturenotes note. Painful It is 786 pages.
Import into Papyrus is almost instantenous. I think Papyrus keeps it in vector form. Which also means you can zoom in and still see nicely formed characters.

Can't you "copy" from Scrapbook and "paste" in to Papyrus? Failing that, see if "clipboard" is an import option in Papyrus. That's where the image will be after you copy it from Scrapbook.

No, as far as I can see, both of these don't work. Too bad...

When I lasso an image, I can see several options for saving it. One of those is the gallery, so why not just select it instead of scrapbook?

Strange... I don't see the gallery there. You just lasso with the S-pen button, and then get the option of save to gallery?

Maybe it depends what apps you have. Perhaps instead you could take a screenshot and crop it before you save. my gallery has a folder for edited images where these go if I do it that way.

Put ur image into Google drive, then import from there

Saving to Gallery isn't an option for me either.

Old note app
After reading all of these posts I am wondering if anyone has used the old note 10.1. I used my old note 10.1 for school. It worked very well but the digitizer broke and I upgraded to a 2014 version. It is a total disappointment. In the previous version when I last lasso'd something like an equation from a textbook all I had to do was wait a few seconds and the lasso'd image disappeared and saved directly to the clipboard. Then I could just go to lecture notes click Import image and it would be saved right there in the gallery. Why have I lost functionality with a newer tablet? Will a root fix this? Can I use the old note app and settings on my tablet? S note itself is garbage but the pin is awesome when it actually works. It just seems this Samsung is unlearning how to make tablets. All I want to do is lasso an image and have it saved directly to the clipboard.

@sendeth: The `lassoed´ material should show up when you select `Paste from non-standard clipboard´ in LectureNotes' `cutter´ menu.

?
First, I don't see that option anywhere. Second, pretty sure that won't matter since my issue is with saving, not pasting or recovering. To reiterate, this is something the old note did automatically.
Edit: I found the menu option. I will experiment with it. Still much clunkier than my old note.

s memo and old notes

Is there any way to get an app like s memo back? I'm feeling that the new S note is too bloated and an overall hassle to even open a new clean page.
If not, is there any way to retrieve and view my old notes from my Note 1?
Not sure if this will help you or not but this is what I do. Settings> spen> check "open pop up note". This is a memo note and you can expand it if you need to.
How do I move all my snotes from my note to note 2
You can "share" the note from your Note 1 via SMS or save it to the SD. It will save it as a JPEG. Then you can drop it into a new Note on the Note 2, and you'll be able to draw on it like you would a picture, but you wouldn't be able to erase or directly edit it. Better than nothing.
If you Double Tap the S pen with the button on the screen it will open Memos as a floating window like it did on the Note 1. If you expand it it will open in Notes.

Ah, I do have all my notes saved on my SD card, but... they aren't jpegs
Try sending your old notes WiFi Direct, maybe that would work, I'd try it.

[Q] Where has the clipboard gone??

With the old note 10.1, you could draw a shape on the screen with the s pen to capture that part of the screen. If you didn't want to send it straight to a particular app, you could save it to the clipboard by clicking on it and then access it later.
With the new note 2014 edition, you can only save it straight to a particular app. Clicking on it no longer sends it to the clipboard.
Anyone know of a way around this?
Thanks

I usually s pen capture and then press the scrapbook app. This will save it to the clipboard. I then cancel saving it to scrapbook but it is maintained on the clipboard where it can be accessed at a later time to insert.
It is not ideal but it seems to work.
Thanks for the reply, I'll give that a go....

[Q] How to open Moon Reader + Polaris Office Document side by side in multi-window?

If you're rooted, you can install multi window manager
I do this quite frequently...Make sure Moon Reader pro and polaris are available in the side bar where you select the apps you want to open. Drag one instance of each app to the main screen so both apps are open (if thats doesnt work, be sure multi-window is enabled in your settings). Then use Moon Readers file browser to open your textbook.

[Q] Documents and Widgets

I was wondering if anyone has discovered or knows of an app that will allow a document (word or pdf) to display as a widget or shortcut from the homescreen. Kinda like a mini binder. I have a bunch of schedules for work that I would like to display as a widget or something instead of having to open a viewer, search for the file, open and then close again.
I noticed two threads from 2012 with no answers; I'm hoping they were just forgotten about in the shuffle.

I just tried something on my 10.1 Tab Pro. In the "My Files" app, press down on a file until a marked checkbox appears. Then select the 3 dots menu on the top right. There is an option to "Add shortcut to home."
Unfortunately you can't select more than one file at a time though, you have to create the shortcut, then go back in and uncheck that one, and check another one, etc.

Where the heck do Google Search downloads go?

If do a search and find a picture I want, then long-press it, and click "Download image", it downloads successfully but I can't find it anywhere with Solid Explorer or Google Photo. That said, if I go to the "Files" application it is right there when I open the application and the info bar at the top of the screen says "Downloads" and there is also a "docs" folder and all the other pictures I have done this with in the past.
I often do this to share them to Facebook or in a chat, but in order to use them I have to search and download, open Files, and use that to move it to Pictures or some other folder I know where it is, and then go back to the application and use it to upload the file by it opening Photo (the Gallery app).
Where are these downloads going that Solid Explorer or Photo can't find them?
BTW, I am not rooted.
Go into Google Photos, select the hamburger menu on the upper left, and choose device folders. You should be able to see from there where your pictures were dropped. If you open the folder, there's a toggle switch to sync it with Google Photos.

Yeah, I understand completely... But the folder isn't there.
I've had this exact same issue. I've resorted to taking a screen shot and cropping it.

Glad I'm not crazy... I think I'm pretty good with Android and just tech in general, and it just stumps me on this one.

I looked for fun and when I clicked the download notification and opened it in Google Photos it says it's in the folder /documents which doesn't exist ?
Anyway to save the photo I just clicked the share button in Google Photos and shared it to Solid Explorer and chose a location to save it.
