[Q] One finger zoom normal? - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II

Mine zooms in or out when I touch the edge of the screen and scroll.
Is there a way to turn this off if this is normal? This is so retarded. I am just trying to scroll up or down web pages and what ends up accidently happening is zooming in or out.

Does that so you can zoom with the s pen. My unlocked note 1 did the same thing.

Thanks for the reply evohog. Yes it would make sense when the s pen is out but with the pen in. I just dont think its necessary. Oh well.

No problem, but I'm still getting use to not scrolling while touching the edges of the screen. Takes a little getting use to but it works out alright.

Stupid hidden function, but quite impressive.

Put your Gnote2 screen off, place it on the table screen facing the top.
Wave your hand over the front camera & sensors.
???
Profit
Not hidden at all, that's 'Quick View' which is an option in the Motion settings. But you're not the first to get excited and post about it here as if you've found the Holy Grail.
this has been posted a few times already
You live up to your name.

It's really delayed. Just swipe quickly and after a few secs it will show. The proximity sensor triggers it as it is lit up red when my phone screen is turned off.

One finger zoom.

How can you disable this function?
I just want to scroll and not zoom when I slide my finger up and down on the left side. I have looked every where for a setting to disable this annoyance..

I actually just noticed this when trying to highlight text in an email...I use chrome and it doesn't zoom with the one finger so I never noticed it, 2 weeks later and still learning about this phone lol
my guess is that you have one-handed operation on. If you take that off I bet it will stop zooming with one finger.
Still does it with one hand operation off.

Cool I can zoom with one finger. Love this feature now since I only scroll from the middle of the screen.
Still no disabling of this feature?
One Finger Zoom
It is a simple to use application to ZOOM on your images with a simple touch, while maintaining the resolution of your images. One tap to zoom and move in different areas of the picture! All the details, with the original resolution, are now at your (one) finger, one touch and there you go!
you can download it from Slideme Market
Spam ^^ . Dolphin beta doesn't have the slide zoom thankfully.
Still can't figure out how to stop the scrolling on edges....

Thank goodness for AOSP. I'm on AOKP and couldn't stand this feature on Stock based roms.

I don't have any of the one handed options enabled and it zooms for me from one finger near the edge of the screen.

Having some problem with s-pen and screen capture tracing...

Hi,
Have noticed when trying to trace an image with my s-pen on the screen with the button pushed that sometimes it just doesn't seem to "take" and capture the image even though I have traced all the way around to the little beginning circle. This seems to happen mostly if I am tracing a smaller image.
Am I doing something wrong or is this just a bug? If it is a bug is there a way to fix it?
SECONDARY QUESTION:
It seems the only way to crop out a square image is to do a screen capture by pushing down the s-pen button and pressing it to the screen then using the crop tool. However, it would be nice to be able to actually draw a perfect crop square in the same way we do a trace capture. Is there any combination of buttons that does that?
I have noticed on my Note 10.1 tablet that I can trace an image in one multiview screen then just drag the into s-notes in the other pane and it pastes. However, with the GN2 this "drag and drop" doesn't seem to work. Am I doing something wrong?
Last thing. Have noticed that on my Note 10.1 I can do a screen capture of the active multiview pane; however, with the GN2 it seems to capture both multiview panes then squishes the entire capture into one pane. Again, am I doing this wrong or is that a bug?
Thanks!
for perfect squares, well and now everything I have been lasso'ing a larger area and then using the photo editor app to crop them down ...for the reason that I noticed the longer I take to get a clean lasso the less chance I have of it working.
Interesting find on the screenshot deal. If I take a screen shot by hand swipe it is normal. Taking it with the pen results in squished screen.
As for the drag and drop I swear it worked out of the box...then the ljc update changed it but I could be wrong. I just know it does not work that way anymore. Similarly I recal draggingbthe lasso'd image to say messaging in the icons at bottom of screen ...now after the update I just hit messaging

I guess the point is that there are a number of things which work as they should on the Note 10.1 that don't seem to work that way on the GN2. It's not a screen real estate issue so I'm not sure what the problem is.
Just seems kind of buggy to me, especially the tracing part.
My Note 10.1 came with a specially designed version of photoshop but I'm not seeing that on my GN2. Am I missing it? I guess I just expected these to be close to the same except smaller. Maybe not.
For instance on the Note 10.1 in multiview each pane gets its own Min, Max and Close buttons but not here. Odd.

I know about those who but they aren't the same. On the Note 10.1 each frame has its own buttons which remain persistent. Like in Windows. Much better.

I find it works best to hold the button, draw your shape/circle then lift the pen with the button still held... works every time.

Pen Window help

Can't figure this out. Everytime I select the pen window function and draw a box on screen I don't have any option to open an app, it just cuts that piece out and I get options on how I want to send it. What the heck am I doing wrong?

I am selecting the pen window. The one on the right when I remove pen and it pops up and looks like a title box with an x in right corner and dashed window, tried doing screen shot but wouldnt take the pop up.
Sent from my SM-N900T using Tapatalk 4
It sounds like you might be holding down the S-Pen button when you're drawing the window. If you are, don't, just draw the window.
I think you are doing a selective screen shot
open up the fan thing and select the one on the far right. That is the window pop up thing
Nope is called wrong app frozen in titanium, lol. Fixed it, works now

Just browsing through xda and found this it looks wonderful on the Note 3. Take a look and try it out. I love it!

Thanks for sharing this. I actually discovered this a couple days ago & just haven't tried it.
Seems very cool. Only think that sux is. The long press home button doesn't turn on the flashlight anymore.. Running tweaked

Hmm... I wonder if that holds true for any lockscreen app. Most likely does... interesting though.
Yeah I agree, I don't use flash as much as I should. I'll email the devs to see if they're planning on doing widgets or some sort of gesture for flashlight. Turning the phone sideways triggers the camera which is cool.
