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.

I appologize if its already on here somewhere but I didn't find much on it. what I think would make the G1 much nicer to use would be a back gesture rather then having to reach down to the back button all the time. u know slide your thumb from right to the left when ur in an app and it would be the same as streching your thumb all the way down to the back button. If someone could either tell me how to set gestures or make something quick and simple to do it I think it would be much nicer to use and I would appriciate it much.
This forum is great and helped me tons on my universal so naturally I'm turning here for help first. I have a feeling by the end of the year Android will be killin the iphone! Turns out its not the phone, its the OS... lol..
The G1 does that to a certain extent but what you are talking about would require a lot of codding in the OS, I don`t think it would be a simple task. But if you are a coder and want to do this, I`m sure other people can offer you some assitance, JF would be one of them for sure. Cheers!

Possibly the only space the operating system reserves for its own input detection is the notification bar. I imagine it might be possible to add some kind of swipe detection to that. However considering how narrow that space is, I don't see how it would be any better than just clicking the back button.
As for the system detecting swipes on the whole lcd, that's probably a non-starter. It would break the touch user interface of many apps.
Currently there are two ways to bring up the programs tab - dragging the tab up and a short press on the tab itself. It *may* be possible to change the function of the short press to 'back' but I think that may cause a lot of inadvertent 'back' presses...

I think what svxdriver wants is for a leftward swipe to be universally recognized as a backstep, meaning not just on the Launcher screen but in all applications.
Not sure how well that would work. The o/s would need to distinguish between a swipe and just scrolling across the screen. Easier, I think, to just use the back button.

well it doesn't have a hard time distinguishing between moving up on a page and when you drag from the top of the screen to pull the notification bar down. in windows mobile I had a program that I could assign different gestures to do different things.. I thought it the same kind of thing would be handy.. but I wouldn't want it to go back cause I swiped, onlyl if I swipe from the edge of th screen to signify I want to go back..
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..

Hello guys.
Just bought a galaxy note 10.1.
I need your advice how YOU handle your device. I do have some troubles.
1. You know the palm rejection thing on the right corner in s note? Its driving me nuts.
Because everytime I write I accidently touch it and palm rejection is disabled. What do you do to avoid it?
2. The black action/status bar on the bottom of the screen seems to be always there. It is so annoying while watching a movie or playing
Games... Anyway to hide it when not used. ?Or is there a way to put it on top?
Thanks
I dont use S-note so I dont know about that but I use GMD gesture control to hide the system status bar and GMD s-pen control to disable finger touch input all together.
I use lecturenotes to take notes w/ the pen and prefer fullscreen use along w/ no palm interference. Hope that helps.
Yeah. GMD S Pen control for disabling finger touch and GMD Gesture control for removing the status bar. Perfect combination.

If first put the pen near the screen your hand doesn't work. So first use your pen then set your hand on screen!
I have hyperdrive installed on my S3, it has this side menu that looks like a little sticker on the side of my screen, and when I swipe it to the right a vertical menu along the left side appears that shows all my applications. I don't know what the menu is called, but I don't use it and want to disable it - the sticker is always there, even when watching netflix, for example, so I just want it gone. Thanks!
That is multi window. Go into settings>display> disable multi window. Or you can hold back button to turn off the icon but keep it enabled.
Not to sound mean, but it's funny seen people buy phones that don't even know what features it has lol
I showed my friend that you can swipe across the screen for a screenshot, and they weren't even aware the s3 can do that lol

I've googled it and got nothing.
Search this forum and not found it either
On Windows 8, if I scroll my mouse to the left/ left corner of the screen, I can see my current apps.
I can then close them.
With my keyboard connected I can do this on my surface using trackpad.
How do I do it without my keyboard connected?
I don't want to swipe them in, I want to see the icons of the apps I have running so I can close them.

you have to swipe in from the left a short distance. I don't own a windows touch device but did get a go on a display model, was kinda fiddly to get the distance just right, was probably about half the distance you need to swipe to switch apps. With some practise you should be able to nail it.

There's two behaviours for a short swipe in from the left. I believe the default one is to "swipe in" the last used app. Whereas what you want is to see a list of currently running apps (me too).
Go Settings>Change PC Settings and you're looking for a setting something like "App Switching">"When I swipe in from the left edge, switch between my recent apps instead of showing a list of them". In 8.1 that setting is under PC & devices, I can't recall if it's the same in 8.
The default way to do what you're asking is to swipe in from the left edge, then swipe back to the edge without releasing the swipe. It's a very quick and easy gesture easily made with the thumb; you don't have to swipe in more than maybe 1/4 of an inch (6mm) before swiping off the screen again to get he app switcher sidebar to appear.
To close the apps using touch only, you can do the following:
Drag the app from the sidebar off the bottom of the screen.
thanks, that's great.
