There is a brown pen icon in the snote, when you press it it changes to a blue pen, does anyone know what it does?

Making the pen icon blue enables pen input only, finger touches will not be recognized, only pen input.
Thank you this is very useful information

I can't seem to get the Note to move into any kind of handwriting mode (other than S Note and similar apps). I'd hoped to be able to use handwriting in Office, gmail, text messaging, etc. Any suggestion?

split screen with s note then copy and paste or share via....
I don't have a note 10.1 (yet!), but want to know if you write a complete page of notes using handwriting can it be turned into a text document using software on the device?

when you click on a text field and the keyboard pops up, there is a button with a T on it to the left of the space bar. Hit that and the handwriting recognition input comes up.

I haven't got mine yet - arrives tomorrow, so this answer is based on what happens with the Note 5.3 that I do have. There is a setting for the Samsung keyboard which switches to handwriting input when the pen is detected. Have a look to see if that is a setting on 10.1 too. It is under Settings->Language and input-> Samsung keyboard->Pen detection

Just a minor addition to this. The T might not be there - it might be a cog, or a microphone. There are three dots on that button. Press and hold the button, and you get a popup offering you text input, handwriting input, speech input, or configuration. So there are four options, and depending what the button is currently set to, pressing and holding gives you access to the other three options.
I just received my Note 10.1 and am loving it. The only question I have is the handwriting and shape recognition. I have opened S Note and for some reason I cannot see it anywhere. Can anybody help?
In the S Note app in the upper left hand corner inbetween the pen icon and the Text Icon is a another box. Press and hold down o that icon with finger or pen for a few seconds and a productivity toolbar will appear and you can choose between Formula, Shapes and Handwriting recognition. Hope this helps.
Any of you guys noticed that when the pen thickness is very tiny and I draw a circle, it fills it? Everytime I draw a circle, it fills it black but when I make the pen thicker, it works fine.

Yeah that's quite weird. If you move it to the next lowest thickness it doesn't do it. And it doesn't do it for other shapes.

Time for an update.
Is anyone able to enter a simple sentence without it popping into text half way through. I can't stand the fact I can't delay 'recognition' until I enter punctuation. Is there anyway to modify this behavior?
-Apologies for hijacking.

That was going to be the question I was going to ask too.
Can you activate the "on screen keyboard" when Touch Cover is attached under tiles mode???
The reason I want this is to use handwriting feature.
Thanks for your help.

So far the only way I know how is if I fold the keyboard back. It senses the position of the keyboard and can activate the onscreen stuff.

I hope there has a way to bring onscreen keyboard without folding the touch cover back.

Yes.
Charms -> Settings -> Keyboard
When the Keyboard pop-up menu appears, choose Touch Keyboard and Handwriting Panel.
That always brings up the onscreen keyboard, even if an external keyboard is attached and working.

haha, that was right infront of me this whole time!!!!
thanks!
Thanks
i wanted to ask the same question
hehe
So my Asus has an option where you can lock the bottom bar so you don't accidentally open the setting menu or press back during games/movies.
I want something similar for my Note10 as when using S-note my palm sometimes sits on the bar and opens the menu which is very annoying! This isn't a palm detection issue within the S-note app it's just a general Android tablet issue.
Anyone got any ideas?
Acctually, when your s-pen is hovering on your screen, your screen is automatically locked from your hand touch
correct me if I'm wrong
Dam you're right. I guess the issue happens when I lift the pen too high and still lean on it. Might need to adjust my writing style.

You can use air view pointer as indicator is your pen too high or not..

How do I move multitasking bar to right, left on the screen. Currently placed at the bottom is very annoying as it pops out everytime I use S pen and my palm touches it. I hv checked the palm restrict button but it only works in s note area not in menu bar at bottom.
Pl help. GT N8000, 4.1.2

You need to enable palm rejection in system setting, not s-note settings

I totally agree, mutlitasking bar and even more the Quikpanel popping out very very often are very very annoying.
Multitasking bar keeps coming even with no apps in it, what's the point of this bar anyway as you get a button that brings you all the openned apps at the bottom left of the screen.
But what bothers me most is the Quick Panel, drives me crazy !
Sure, there's palm rejection, but when thinking of what to write next, I don't think of keeping the pen close enough to the screen and bam the quikpanel pops up, hate it.
I love this tablet, it's fantastic, handwriting to text is amazing,
but why on earth did they put the quick panel on the bottom right right where 90% users put their writing hand,
Menues have allways been on the left in Windows, MacOs, in all softwares, why change ??!!
Can't it be deactivated ?
Lefties are lucky.

Thanks buddy, at least some one shares the same concern, I am surprised that no responses from the expert developers so far on this forum. I wish they can reach this to the Samsung guys......and before that help to come up with a work around.
Use GMD s-pen control. You can enable palm rejection from there.
