Common Operations in Split-Screen Mode

When in split-screen mode, feel free to:

• Switch split screens: Touch and hold down on at the top of a split screen until this split screen shrinks, then drag this split screen to the other split screen and release, to switch split screens.

• Adjust the split screen ratio: Drag between the two split screens to adjust the relative size of each split screen.

• Save split-screen combinations: Save common split-screen combinations to the home screen, and tap to apply them. Touch or between the two split screens, and touch Save combo to save the split-screen combination to your home screen. Touch the split-screen combination icon on the home screen to apply it right away.

• Switch a split screen to a floating window: Touch and hold down on near the top of a split screen, and drag it to the left or right (in portrait mode) or downwards (in landscape mode).

• Exit split-screen mode: Drag or between the two split screens, until the other split screen disappears.

Drag and Drop Between Apps with Multi-Window

Use the Multi-Window feature to easily drag and drop images, text, and documents between apps.

• Drag and drop an image: When taking notes with Notepad, open Files, select the photo you want to add, and drag it into the Notepad editor.

• Drag and drop text: When sending an SMS message, open Notepad, touch and hold the text you want to send, and drag it into the message text input box.

• Drag and drop a document: When writing an email, open Files, select the document you want to attach, and drag it into the email editor.

Not all apps fully support drag-and-drop with Multi-Window.
