The circle doesn't appear no more when I put my s pen near the screen ?

Hello every one,
The little circle who use to appear like a mouse cursor doesn't appear anymore, why that?

Settings, S-Pen, Air view. Check if that is on. If it is it might be a issue with you pen.

S pen capturing images

I have tried numerous times to use my s pen to capture images from the browser, but when i do it, it isn't drawing the circle around the image. I am pressing the button while trying to capture, but nothing.
Any idea what I am doing wrong?

You're holding down the spen button the while time while you are drawing the circle correct?

Yes. I wonder if something is wrong with my s pen button, because I can't take screenshots with it either.
When i hover over the screen I see the indicator that it sees my s pen and when i press the button while hovering the "mouse" disappears, so it seems to even know that i am pressing the button.
Not sure what is up.

Could I have accidentally turned off an option to cause this?

do any other gestures work while holding down button? double tap note, selecting text etc

Double tap note not working either.

I had a bad s pen. This thing is a lot cooler when that button works! Lolol

txt resize/reflow in browser zoom

i changed the text size in settings to small, but now when i use the browser, the text reflow to page size doesn't work to my zoom level, it only works to the "default" double tap size. is there a fix or work around for this so text reflows to the width i zoom in?
thanks

are you zooming in then double tapping?
Sent from my SPH-L900 using xda app-developers app

that's the problem. double tap will go to the width of the text. manual zoom, pinch zoom, whatever, does not reflow the text to the width of the screen, even though the option is set. doesn't matter if its more or less than the double tap zoom width. even the original rendering

i sm having trouble following ya
reflow on samsungs is silly.. pinch zoom.. then double tap=reflow

so basically, reflowing txt to your zoom width doesn't work, not existent, broken, on Samsung devices.

thats not what i said...
you have to zoom in...then double tap. apple had rights to reflow. though htc was able to work out a deal with apple and simple doubletap=reflow samsung was not....thus it was changed
zoom in by pinching...then double tap.

when i zoom in, then double tap, double tap zooms it out to whatever the default font size is saved as in options. it does no reflowing what-so-ever.
i didn't realize this was a magical patentable thing, nor the apple control, or htc deal. i thought this was called "word wrap" and displaying-text-within-display-margins, something done on electronics since the 60s. probably before that in labs and military stuff.
what a stupid patent.

I like the stock better though. I don't know why, everyone likes chrome. I find it buggy though.

I finally understand the double tap...i tried it on a display phone in the Sprint store today. But, it doesn't do that on my phone. Double tap zooms to the width of the default text size set in settings, regardless of what its set to. I've tried changing all the options... what am i doing wrong?

You can also use gesture. You will need to enable it in the settings.

Huh I cant get the swiping to take a screen pic.

Aurora live wallpaper

It looks great on the note 3 screen. The lock screen is cool also, when you hover your finger over the screen a star appears that you can move around

That's the light lock screen from the S4. It is cool. And it does that with any live Wallpaper. On the S4 it was with any regular wallpaper.
