S-Note questions

Got my 10.1 note and love it, however, despite trying layer paint I really enjoy using s-note.
however, is there any way of changing opacity for screenshots, layers?
Also is there a way I can disable scrolling, as when I touch with my palm to rest to draw it sometimes moves the canvas.

If you don't want to get your hand to affect the touchscreen, you should tap on the finger icon at the right bottom of the frame. If you go like this, the screen can only be accessed by the stylus

That'll only prevent the finger from drawing on the screen when the pen is away, and only prevent the palm from pan/zoom when the pen is closer than an inch-ish (14mm) from the screen. In reality this isn't always the case which leading to this really frustrating problem! I'm very aware of the problem myself and started a thread about it in the apps section a couple of hours ago. Unfortunately because the lack of settings in SNote I can't see any fix but to replace it with an third part app like Lecture Notes... To bad, I really like the shape/function features in SNote as well as the WolframAlpha "instick".

Left-hand friendly One note app?

Couldn't seem to figure out if i could do this on my own so i came here for any advice!
Basically, i was wondering if you could take the one note app that looks a little something like this:

and change it to be something a little more left hand friendly. Perhaps something like this?

It's a minor change but if you're a lefty taking notes on this device, it makes a HUGE difference. Often times, when bringing my hand down to the device to write, my hand will accidentally touch another note page and switch to that note page. It's quite annoying!
Also, i've tried specifying which hand that i write with, setting it to left handed, but it doesnt seem to make any difference at all. Makes me wonder what it ACTUALLY does....

Fellow lefty with surface pro 2 here. I know your problem.
Solution:
Use fullscreen
Hold your stylus closer to the screen when approaching it, so that touch input gets deactivated.

It changes the location where the context menu appears when you right click, so it is not hidden below your (left) hand.

[Q] Possible to light up only sidepanel when message received

Hi all,
If the question isn't that clear: Is it possible to let the sidepanel light up when you get a message? sms or whatsapp or whatever? only the sidepanel. And this when the mainscreen is off. so the phone is locked.
At this moment the sidepanel doesn't do anything when something is received. I checked all the settings but nothing happens.
Thanks for all the future reply's

When the screen is off, you can rub the Side Panel like a genie lamp and it will show you any missed notifications. But AFAIK, that's about it...

I found an alternate way to accomplish this. It's not exactly what you want but it comes very close imo.
1. Go to your lock screen settings and turn off all information that can be displayed on your lock screen.
2. Turn off all lock screen effects.
3. Choose swipe to unlock.
4. . Select a pitch black wallpaper of your choice and select it as your lock screen wallpaper.
5. Profit! I set my ringer to silent when i am in a meeting at work. When you receive a text message, the orange edge notification panel lights up and goes out in 3 secs. The main display stays completely blacked out, (except for the nav buttons and notification pull down menu) thanks to your black lock screen wallpaper. This much more discrete, compared to having your entire QHD display light up in all its glory, during times when more stealth is required

I too thought this was going the feature of the phone WITHOUT rubbing the edge panel
guess we either have to wait for a rom that does that or Samsung release something for that cuz that would be so SICK!!

I saw the Korean Note Edge screen lights up when receiving text message, so is this feature for some strange reason removed for US versions? Honestly to a certain point I thought this was one of the main reason to using the edge , not waste battery by reading the text message without turn on the entire device.

any updates?
Does anyone know if this will be available soon? Maybe in the lolipop update? Would love this to come out. Thought it was already on it tbh

I almost made a new thread before coming across this thread. Are there any updates on this? I'm running Lollipop now on my Note Edge but it still doesn't appear as if they have included this feature which leaves me a bit dumbfounded since it would seem like the perfect use for this Edge screen. It kinda does it already when you rub it (which takes quite a long time to load) but it would be nice if it would just light up automatically when you get a SMS, email, Whatsapp, missed call etc.

hi,
I own the flip cover from Samsung and with this when I receive a notification or a call I get only the edge screen power on.

Yes mine is possible... n915L

Edge Screen option says
Show preview of new messages on the edge of the screen..

Damn, I already have a flip cover from a third party. I didn't like the Samsung one because the edge screen isn't covered at all (mine has a plastic cut out). Nevertheless, they should still make it possible even without the official flip cover since it can easily be a functionality built into the phone, not the cover.

Thanks, I didn't know that but after checking it, it was already ticked. I hardly ever get any SMS, mostly messages through Whatsapp and Line. What I was talking about though isn't even a preview of the messages, just icons like what you would see on the status bar before you pull it down for the notifications. The Information Stream doesn't display notifications from every app even after I select them in the settings (and even then, you'd have to rub the edge for it to appear) and the Briefing Panel also doesn't show every notification I get (I got a few Facebook messages on the Messenger app in my notifications but according to the Briefing Panel, I had no notifications). Of course, it's not a big deal and I still love my Note Edge, but this is the kind of thing that always made me stay away from Samsung in the past. A lot of potentially useful features let down by poor execution.

Go to the play store and find Augmented SmartWatch Pro and Augmented Edge. These two apps (both by the same dev) together do what you're wanting. The main screen DOES still turn on, but it's a blank grey to black gradient (kinda like the background of the quick glance from the Note 3). I'm hoping a later update gives the option to just make it completely black.

Thanks but the Augmented Edge only shows Google Music controls and the Augmented Smartwatch Pro costs $4. I don't know if I'm being a cheap bastard or not but I feel that's unreasonable considering it should've been a basic functionality. But the fact that it still lights up the main screen albeit with a dark grey/black gradient seems to indicate that it's not as easy to code something like this as I had imagined otherwise he would've just turned on the edge screen alone.

Personally I don't mind paying a little bit for a decently coded app that effectively provides a much needed feature, but I know what you mean.
Also, yes the Augmented Edge app by itself doesn't do much. And Augmented Smartwatch Pro doesn't even provide features relevant to non Wear users on its own, but the two work together and I've definitely enjoyed the benefits (I leave my edge on the desk by my bed so if a notification goes off or anything, I just have to turn my head to look. )

thanks for the tips... I enjoyed the 2 apps

I'm glad I could help. On a related note (pun intended of course) for anyone reading this who may be interested ASP and AE (the apps mentioned above) was JUST updated to support an entirely black main screen while displaying edge notifications.

[Dev] What Apps would you like to run on the Cover Screen?

Hi Guys! If you could, what Apps would you like to run on your cover screen, given that it's really small or what type of information you wish you could access from the cover screen?
I am a developer, so maybe, just maybe I will be your genie to your wishlist of cover screen apps.
Go ahead, be as creative as you could be! I look forward to hear ideas other than using the Cover Screen as a Notification LED please.

there is no native android support outside screen... so you can't to do anything...
if you are wizard - make please for start AOD on cover screen

I obviously can do some magic.
That's why here to collect ideas which the actual users may would like to see, I won't be super keen on AOD implementation as that would eat up battery, but sure, could be an option. I have my own list of to-dos for the first version of the Super App, just want to see what users come up with.

something can toggle wifi Bluetooth sound flashlight.....

I used aod on all my samsungs. and even on large screens it didn't add much to the battery drain. But how many forums I read, most users are at a loss why the small Samsung display, which is logical for aod, was not used in this model.
about adding functional - enabling bixby routines would be logical without opening the phone.

Well, if Samsung natively implements sure, not much batter drain, but as a third-party developer there are limited access to the APIs (at least not without root.) But yeah, I will see what I can do about it. Bixiby routines, interesting.

I second the toggles for bluetooth/sound/flashlight. Also would like the notification ring as well.. like the ring we see when we charge it.

super. I hope you will finish this soon

Thanks forbyour work is it possible to choose thé number of lines of notification liké the Google assistant message (3 lines) and an vertical scrolling and longer time before extinction for notifications ?
Please

I have a couple days with the flip and for my confort don't spend to much effort to open and for the sake of won't scratch more often when I put on every surface close position, I semi-close pacman like position and put like a stand so the metal frame only touch the surface not the glass and that way when I have to open only use one hand to fully open.
But in that position all the notifications appear on the main screen, so no way to see what notification have, it's there a way to show the notifications on the second mini screen in open position?

I agree, just a simple AOD digital clock would be sweet

How to disable pen cursor on Android Tablet?

Hi!
I´ve got an Lenovo P11 Pro Tablet with the Lenovo Precision Pen 2. When using the pen theres always a little circle under the pen tip before touching the screen. I think this feature is more distracting than usful and want to disable it. The problem is I can´t find anything in the settings including developer settings to do this. Does anybody know how I can disable this? (I´ve got no problem with doing anything more advanced to do it)
Thanks in advance!
