Hi guys,
I am struggling with the floating keyboard to the extent that I want to smash the damn thing to pieces .
1. For the love of God - how can you move the floating keyboard around? I manage to move it once every 100 tries....
2. When in multiscreen mode, it's extremely slow and laggy. Do you have the same problem?
Thanks.

long press on it. than you can move it.
I had no lag issues with it, but recently i pulled thumb keyboard out of mothballs and have been using it.
i just take 2 fingers one finger on a character or number and the other finger on a different char or number, hold for a sec and move.
hold down with two fingers and move when you see blue border appears. floating keyboard is useful in most places as it can move around but prediction and accuracy are horrible. download TouchPal keyboard from store, it's the best but no floating keyboard or a split one.

Sorry about the poor phrasing of the title, but basically, my issue is:
I'll be typing on the keyboard quickly, and every.now.and then, a full stop/period will appear. I'm.not.sure if that's my finger slipping on the period key or the space bar being too keen with double tapping space (which I'm not doing), but is there a way to disable it? (without.installing a new keyboard)

I don't recall seeing anything like that when I looked through the settings. Sorry.
I noticed this as well. I just hit the period key instead of the space bar. Its just misplaced.

S note just crashed and lost my 2 hours assignment. Did I make a mistake in trusting Sammy? Is auto-save that hard to implement? And is it really hard to implement a auto document recovery system?
if it is really important.. y dont you press the "save" button time to time? it's just located at top of the screen

I have had many crashes similar to this using Snotes, Tapatalk, and Polaris office. The screen went blank and about 5-6 seconds later it returned to the lock screen with the app closed without any warning?
It sadly takes 5 seconds to save every time I press it

I was using shape recognition last time it crashed. What about you?

that's weird.. i havent have any force close experience with this device until now
Hi all,
I had also a few crashes while taking notes in study lessons. It is really frustrating and I hope there will be more improvement specially on stability.
Best regards

I just got on here to look for this very subject. I use s note for work. I heavily use the shape recognition and handwriting to text function. Ever since the recent software update, s note has been "crashing" just a minute or two into using the handwriting to text function. It starts by not converting text I have just written, then after I wait 20 seconds or so, everything I have written by hand all of a sudden gets converted to text and then it freezes. It won't let me erase, close, or anything. Sometimes I can't even get it to force close by going into the application settings and I have to restart the tablet. This is very frustrating seeing as how I use this at work constantly and this was a huge part of what drew me to the tablet

I also have this problem.
When I try to write something with handwriting to text it works until I have around 20 words written. Then the whole application hangs up and ends in the startscreen...
Does Samsung know the problem?
Edit:
Could it be that this is caused by rooting the device?!?
I got also a lot of crashes in the s note app and my device isn't rooted. For everyday use at university I prefer lecture Notes to S-notes a lot more and on top there was not a single crash since I make use of it. I got my crashes when I wanted to make use of the 'Handwrite-to text'-function.

Same crashes
After the latest update, my s-note crashes everytime I try to use the write recognition to text. My device is not rooted and it worked perfectly before the update.

Are there shape recognition in lecture notes?
Sent from my GT-N8010 using XDA Premium HD app
No. It offers certain tools like draw a line, circle, rectangle (filled, unfilled). So it CAN draw forms 'indirectly' but not as easy as in the s notes app.

Mine also crashes sometimes when using handwriting to text or the formula editor. It won't force close, it will just freeze and then restart itself

Not a single crash with snote since the official German ota jelly bean update for me though. Pretty happy with it.
Sent from my GT-N8000 using XDA Premium HD app
Mine crashed everytime I used Handwriting Recon, the fix was to just use the one a key board. Now though I am using the Germany Jellybean on my 8013 and its perfect! You will need setcpu for on demand govevnor to stop reboots.

i didnt exprinced any crashes to this moment . i use S note everyday
Had the phone for about a month now and all has been good up until yesterday, when a black section appeared on the keyboard! It seems to have squashed the letters more to the left making typing difficult. It selects a different letter to the one I press EG. I press N and it would have typed B.
I have uploaded a photo to show the problem. It's just the black block to the right of the picture.
Anyone now how to sort the problem?
Any help would be great, thanks.

This is a great thing. I and many others have been hoping Swiftkey would pick this up. The lack of a dedicated number row was the reason I've not been using it since last years Note 2 release.

That sounds good cause right now Sammy keyboard has the number row but no long press symbols, while swiftkey has long press symbols and no number row
This is great news! I think they realized that with the devices getting bigger, it's a must have now.

That's the exact reason why I was torn between the two last year. Samsung came out on top because I tend to use numbers more than symbols (password, date, etc).

Great news. Thanks! I haven't been using SK because of it.
It's been about time for this. I made my note 3 showing the change input method thingy in the notification bar just for that reason. Let's just hope that the update is coming soon.
Every keyboad must have dedicated numeric pad just like sammy keyboard. It feels annoying when you have to press extra buttons to get the numeric pad. Thats the main reason I am using sammy keyboard.
Very good. With screens this big there really is no reason that the option shouldn't be there. Not everyone wants the dedicated number row, but many do. If Swiftkey implement this their userbase will grow, I am sure lots of people refrain from using SK because it lacks the number row.
Oh great, more keys to accidentally hit. :silly: The arrows bar is my best friend and my worst enemy at the same time....
You do realize you can just hit the 123 key and you get numbers?

With that '123 key' you type >press 123 key> type number >press key again to get back to typing. If thats cool with you, more power to ya. The point for many is not having to do all that. It's not the smooth flow of using a keyboard with a dedicated number row.

Definitely. Having it as an option is a no-brainer expecially with the 5+ inch screens popularity growth.

Nice. Now if they could implement the swype to move the cursor, like Samsung keybord, that would be perfect.
Anyway, can't use Samsung keyboard because of the long press to get to exclamation points/etc. It takes to much time. And the swype option is very slow compared to SwiftKey Flow feature.
SwiftKey beta live now with Emoji and numbers row! Yeah!
Downloaded and love it! The only think they need to to take off is the number rows on the Qwerty line

One more thing I would to see is to have more words appear in prediction
Using the standard keyboard with the swiping method especially, it keeps kicking me out of the app I'm in almost as if it's sensitive to certain gestures. Anyone seeing this problem? Happens a lot using Tapatalk.

It's a more general problem: touching or sweeping near the bottom of any app screen can cause Android to think I'm taking one of the bottom row buttons, for example using the shutter button on the camera. Anyone else?
