Does anyone know a way or a hack that allows hyperlinks in an app like Twitter to open ontop of Twitter instead of in the second multi window?
I would like to open links without closing out my top window and stopping the app I am using there.

I'm looking for an sms widget that allows you to write a reply in the actual widget without opening a new window.
I'm using wave launcher to temporarily open widgets on top of whatever I have open at the time, go sms widget almost had it with a small pop up window that opened over most apps but it still shut down Thd games when I tried to right an sms.
Anyone know of anything like this?
Try SMS Popup from Google Play

Sms pop up seems great but I'm really after a widget. Basically a widget that does the same function as sms pop up, that way I can open the widget when I want to reply rather than as soon as I get the text.
You can download the GO SMS app from the playstore,it's free and the widget allows you to do what you want,also you could also download the Go Launcher,personaly i think it's a little better than the wave launcher.
Go sms doesn't work for this purpose because you can't write text in the actual widget, instead a pop up window appears, this pop up closes Thd games that are running.
Also wave launcher is not a home launcher like go launcher (I'm currently using apex launcher) its a app/shortcut/widget task manager similar to swipepad, which I'm using to view and interact with widgets on top of whatever app I'm running.

Anyone know if this is possible or if there is an app out on the Market for this?
I would like to be able to call up a Popup Dialer in the Note 2, similar to calling up a Popup S-Note with the S-Pen. I suppose I've had more than a few instances where I was reading something that contained a phone number that wasn't clickable and wish I could either keep that note open in a small window while I switch to the dialer, or else if I could just call up a mini dialer in a popup window so that I could dial the number as I was reading it.
I don't think the dialer is available in multiwindow mode, unless maybe you apply a MOD to have ALL apps available for window mode.
TIA
Great Idea! Might want to submit that to Samsung.
or dialer widget?

xperiacle has done this by adopting a tablet ui for the galaxy note 1.
Here is the link. Check out the second video in the OP "TW - Tableui" I would love to see some of this capability on GN2!

You could just use multi window. Works fine for me.

this looks really cool, so is any of it available for Note 2?
use multiwindow... or dialer widget and popup widget apps to make the widget popup when you hit a shortcut on screen.. to activate (without needing to go back to a home screen) you can use whatever you want.. wave launcher, dock4droid..etc.. or even just dock it in the bottom dock.

is there an app to run multiple apps at the same time and have one in the background transparent
while working in another...
say for instance I want to browse the web yet still look at a document and be able to read it
tranparently in the background...
or have a document open or picture open to look at transparently or faded in the background while typing something
I know you can use multi window mode but that's not exactly what I want...
thanks if anyone has an ideas... or apps that can do this...
My multiwindow seems to be highly variable on how it will complete actions. Sometimes if I have an app like lecture notes open and pull out the drawer to the right and select chrome, it will open chrome as the side by side window. Other times it will give me an option to have chrome as a floating window above other apps. There are also times when I'll have both windows occupied with lecture notes and myscript calculator and selecting chrome will give me a floating window, but sometimes it will replace one of the two side-by-side apps. It seems really inconsistent and is quite frustrating. Does anyone know how the app determines how a new multi app will be opened? Thanks
If you tap the icon (as long as it's an app that can pop up) it opens it floating. If it can't it'll open side by side. If you drag it out it'll open side by side

Hi All,
Just got my G3 for 3 weeks and it's quite decent. However, I would like to ask if there is any method to let the browser floating on current app instead of switching to it.
The current scenario is that when I tap on a link in any app other than browser, it will switch to browser or pop up dual-window (if the app supports dual window), but I hope it can pop a floating browser. I know that I can do it manually from pull-down menu and select browser on the quickslide navigation bar but in this way I'll have to enter the address by myself.
Thanks
