Multitask UI button (left button on your nav bar). Swipe away to close apps that behave. Long press and go to App Info to kill only if necessary. To get there manually go to Settings > Apps and swipe right to show all running.

I dunno of Anyone uses this but if ya have go launcher and double the screen it allows you to draw a gesture as a shortcut to open an app.

Hope someone can help!

Try LMT Launcher.
It's free and has gesture controls and optionally a pie menu where you can assign different funtions to each segment.

Check Apex settings - settings behavior - quick actions activate (yes)?

It sounds like you may have locked the desktop. Just go into the app drawer, and under the three-dot settings option, choose unlock desktop.

OK. Both of you guys were right. Locked desktop and quick actions. Enjoy your thanks and I really REALLY appreciate the help.

usually you tap on the window you want to close, and "X" icon to close app will pop up somewhere on the tapped app (along with max & min icon).

I have never seen that "X" icon... I usually just keep pressing back button until it closes =/ or could just maximize one screen you want to hide other.

I generally like the multiwindow, but if I can't get rid of a window.. It's pretty dumb.. Lol. Somehow, I swiped down and got it to disappear but can't do it again..
For me whenever I press on a Window that that I want to maximize, right next to the swap windows should be a maximize Window (below the adjustable bar)

I know how to maximize and swap. I just don't know how to exit out of a Window. I know that you can maximize the Windows you don't want, then back up to the previous app but sometimes, it doesn't work. Anyone know how to close a Window in MultiWindow?

Hold down the back button. It will make the side ran disappear. Hold it down again to get it back

Haha I'm aware. That's not what I mean. Like when you're using MultiWindow, so you have two windows on your screen. How do you get rid of one.

Touch the one you want to keep and hit the maximize button.

That's what I was guessing. See if this post helps ... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=41822132&postcount=4558 ... and here is link to update the installer http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2072081
Ok here is the solution. There is a small arrow shape in the middle bar. When u tap on the top window the arrow will point on that and vice versa. So which means ur function buttons like (back & menu) will work on that tap. So if u press back button it will close that tap. Thats all. Very simple.
If u didnt find that little arrow then just keep tapping on top and buttom and u will notice the arrow

I tried, but it only closes the app if it's the first page. Like..say you were on the Internet and you went forward to like 3 Web pages, if you press the back, the browser just goes back , ,not cancel the app ):

I am using VanirAOSP and can access the menu just fine. There is an option within the ROM to modify hardware buttons. Long pressing the home button acts as a menu button for me. I can also use the menu button within PIE to access it if I wanted to.
Thanks for the help

For CM10, default is to double tap the Home button to access menus.
