That's the multi window feature... Drag an app out from it into the top or bottom of the screen, then do it again.
I am an idiot Thanks Guys.

Since I'm on a roll ... how can I add an app? I see "Edit" and "Drag Here" but it seems only to allow me to add remove items already on the sidebar.
You can't add an app other than those given, unless you flash the zip made by Paul O'Brien of MoDaCo.

I just accidentally found another way to close the notifications menu.
Sorry if this is already known.
Usually to close the notification pull down, I flick it up or drag it up, but a few minutes ago I noticed that if I perform the same pull down motion again, notification will close.
That's all I got; so if even one person learned something new, then I'm happy.
Thanks, veritasaequita

I tried and got nothing. Pretty sure you were just swiping down and accidentally hitting the back button.

Yeah he either hit the home or back

It's probably because he hit the status bar at the top. When the notification menu is pulled down you can tap the status bar and it will collapse back to normal.
It's working for me good find...

Its because you touch the bottom bar of the pulldown window. all it needs is a tap.

Yep. If you tap bottom of pull down or status bar it will go back up. Has nothing to do with swiping.
If you use a alternative instead of touchwiz u can have custom methods to open then notification bar also. But everyone knows this one i believe

Yeah when I was using Launcher pro plus, I set the home button to open/close notifications (and to go to home screen when not on the home screen). Actually like it that way but I also like Touchwiz, wish I could get the same options with Touchwiz.
thats freaken awesome dude thanks! I have a problem trying to get it back up sometimes without clear button. so thanks for the find!
Good find. Thanks man

well your half correct...yes u can tap the bottom (which just makes it roll back open) "OR" you can swipe downward from the very top and it will instantly close. also it doesn't matter how far you swipe, its going to close regardless.

You don't gave to Swype down. Once you have the notification open a simple tap on the status bar will do the trick.

You can also use the back button to close the notification bar.

Sort by Alphabet
Settings>>General>>Main Screen
Click right side of Oppo Launcher
Took me a while to find that one myself. Of course then it didn't work, apps didn't sort at all but it fixed itself after I reinstalled the beta and it would then sort them. Just an FYI in case you hit the button and nothing happens.

It's odd that I have nothing under Settings>General>Main Screen as in I don't have a "Main Screen", but if I am in the app drawer and I long press an icon (they start wiggling) and at the bottom in green you can tap it to put them in alphabetical order.

No, you don't. When its working they will immediately sort themselves, when something is hosed they won't restart or no. As to the fellow above you are on 1.2, they changed it in the beta to an option in the main settings and the drawer no longer sorts by a long press in the drawer.
Thanks lagunabad. I have been struggling to get TWRP on here, so I hadn't put the beta on yet. Finally got TWRP on just now, so I'll see what everyone else sees.

Hi all,
I apologize if this has been documented somewhere but I've tried searching the forums and various PA youtube videos to figure it out, with no luck so far.
What does this button (pictured below), do?
Thanks!
That enables hover

At first I thought it had something to do with auto-closing the drawer after swiping away the last notification, but that didn't seem to be the case.
I'm not sure if this is PA style, but perhaps a popup or toast notification the first time the user presses this button to give them an idea of what's going on?

I hate the screen to the left of my home screen, how can I remove it?
Open the home screen you want to remove, long press anywhere on that screen until you see the WIDGETS button at the bottom, press WIDGETS button, then just long press the screen you wish to remove and drag to the top to remove.
To change or add back just do the same, but instead just put a check in the widgets you want adding. HTH

Unfortunately, there is no way to remove it with the touchwiz launcher, unrooted.

What did I just post above? You don't need root or anything else to remove it. However you will have to leave at least one widget, that cannot be removed.

Your response does not make sense. You can't remove the screen and you must leave at least one widget on it.

There are 2 screens to the left, you can remove the first one easily. The last one only the widgets can be removed except for one.
Just use an other launcher...
Use different launcher. Even custom Roms have that screen. I think it is unremovable.

I think your referring to something else. There are no such options on the tab s.
Goodmorning,
I'm very happy with my honor 20 view, but I can't find out how to close just 1 opened app. When I click the bin, all opened apps would be closed.
Someone knows a way for this?
Thanks in advance!
Just click on recent and instead of clicking om bin, just swipe that particular app up and it will close.

Wow... how simple can it be. With my older phone I had to swipe each app in the bin, so I tried to swipe down and no... that didn't work
Thanks!

If you swipe down on an app it will lock it in place and will not get rid of it from the background.
