Deleting pictures without touching recents? - Google Pixel 2 Questions & Answers

Hello,
Deleting a picture from the gallery does not work for me.
The confirmation and trash icon is over the recents button.
When I try too press the confirmation, every time the recent programs pop up.
Edit: forgot to mention that I have the navbar inverted. When not inverted I keep touching the back button.

gmail glitch or am i dumb?

When I get a gmail notification, I pull down the bar and click it. After I read the email I press 'home'. The problem is that the notification is still there. If I click on it again it'll take me to the email again and when i press home it will disappear that time. Or when originally pressing the notification I can read the email and press 'back' to get back to my inbox and then the notification will disappear. Or I can just drag the bar and press clear.
Is this how of works for everybody? I'm almost positive that with my g1 and mytouch i would drag the notification and press on it and it'd disappear. The notification would appear, i would press it, and it would politely disappear The current way is kind of a hassle since i'm so used to it being simpler and smoother on my 2 other android phones.
Maybe there is a setting that i missed?
Thanks for any information
Must be a glitch, it happens to me too. It also happens in Google Voice. After you read the message you can press back then home to clear the notification for now.
Same here (Ten Char)
same here. I got used to always hitting the back button to erase the notification before i hit the home button.
It's a bug in 2.1. The notification goes away after about a minute. I submitted an issue in the bug tracker earlier today about this.
Cool thanks for the update

Maybe is the way you do it. After reading the mail if you press Home, the program doesn't realize you've read it. But if you press Back, instead, the notification goes out immediately. This behaviour is the same for the G1 and the MyTouch as well.

[Q] "Show All Aplications" is missing

I use CM 7.2 ROM. There are 3 "buttons" at the bottom of any home screen. The one in the middle is for showing all the application. Apparently, my kids deleted that icon action and I don't know how to put back the previous action.
Done it before mate, all you got to do is long press the home screen, go to launcher actions, then open/close app drawer
u try rebooting the phone?

[Q] Stock Android Email client - force to show Archive button?

Does anybody know how we could force the stock android email client to show as much buttons (but especially the "Archive" button) on the top bar next to the "Trash" and the "Read" button?
It has more than enough space there, so no need to hide actions behind the 3dot menu.
It briefly shows up when opening a new email from the notification area, together with the create email big round button on the lower right, but it will disappear after a few milliseconds to hide in the 3dot menu. I tried to play around with DPI settings, but no luck.
Why is the app behaving in this apparently stupid way?
Thanks for any input on this!

Taking screen shots and multi-window app screens

To take a screenshot of your watch:
Swipe right and hold the home button at the same time.
To show multi-window on your watch:
On any screen, swipe (halfway) up and immediately down. It will show you multiple open apps all in one place.
For those who didnt know.
Screenshot option, I knew and it works.
Multi-window, I didn't know and it doesn't work for me. Hmm...

[Bug Report] Pixel Pil Back Button

When hitting the back button when using the pixel style nav bar it doesn't bring you back but sometimes it bring you to the recent apps menu instead. This is how to replicate the issue:
1) Open any app and the back button will appear (using the pixel style back, home nav bar)
2) Instead of pressing precisely on the back button, press slightly to the left of it (the blank space on the left of the back button).
3) Now instead of going back it goes to the recent app menu.
I've uploaded a video of Google drive showing the issue, check here:
https://drive.google.com/file/d/1oc_-KmvlJ45_R6jDR_it3KLXwgkmGWO9/view?usp=drivesdk
As seen in the video, I'm clearly hitting the back button but it doesn't always bring me a step back, but instead pulls up the recent app menu. And all i have to do is to just hit the left of the back button icon or hit the left corner of the nav bar. Now this is annoying cause you have to be very precise with where you press, slightly to the left of the back button and it'll trigger the recent app menu. That's ridiculously stupid and inconvenient, the entire space around the back button should be enough to toggle the back action, not just the small back icon.
Anyone else facing the same issue?
Would be great if someone from OnePlus can acknowledge this issue!
