So I noticed after updating to kit Kat if you go into pen window there an edit button and when I click it it gives me the option to add more apps but I can't figure out how to add them. Any clues?

You should be able to click and hold the app to drag into the existing apps
I've tried and I can't do anything. I've tried dragging them from the app drawer but for some reason it won't let me select anything. I can't swipe at the arrows on the bottom like in the picture. It just stays in a frozen state until I close the pen window.

Its not for adding new apps but it's for organizing the ones that are already on the list.

You know when you select a piece of the page with the spen holding the button? After that an option to share pops up. Well it doesn't pop up anymore. I have to go into gallery to share it. Any idea how I disabled this accidentally? Thanks

Somehow I moved my multi window tab and bar to the bottom of my screen and can't figure out how to get it back on the left side. Any ideas?
Open the tab to view the apps then click and hold the tab and you can move to the top bottom left or right

long press it like an icon and drag it to wherever youd like
How do you get rid of it I don't like how you can see the little tab after

Long press the back button.
Thats all of it!
Now the hard part is finding a place where the tab doesn't bother you

I'd recommend taking a look at CleanROM 3.5...Absolutely the best (stability, battery life, functionality, and ease of installation) ROM I've used. It has MWC (MultiWindowControl) which allows you to add any apps you want to MultiWindow.

Same here. Stock Unrooted after 4.1.2 OTA. No access to Google Now Menu. Flashes briefly then disappears. Tried to clear cache but won't clear. Tried to uninstall updates in application manger but hangs on uninstalling screen.
Click on the bar at the top to bring up your keyboard and now the menu will stay open.

Menu won't stay open whether keyboard present or not. Using Swiftkey.
Finally got the Google Search update to uninstall and the menu opens normally when not updated. Hmmm.

I have the same issue. Re-updated and menu flashes and disappears.
Add me to this list also. It's a bug in the new search update. It really sucks. Thankfully I don't need to use the menu/setting that much.
If I do I can get into it via settings.
Do a dummy search first, then try it....

Yep, this worked for me too. Now if I can just figure out why my battery life took a hit with the new update. Life will be good again.

I was able to get into that menu. But I still can't get into the menu if nothing is typed in the search bar.

Quick update. Still happening.
Workaround (based on previous posts and trials)
Open Google Now.
Type a space (or any placeholder text in the search bar.
Close the keyboard and retry the menu key. The menu should now pop up and float there.
The search bar seems to have to have something in it for menu to not instantly close again. I've put as little as just that space and it works.
Wonder how Google missed that?

I would hypothesize that this is a Samsung Twiz ROM issue, rather than a Google oops...Trying it on my PACMan 20.1 install I fail to get the bug.
Anyone in this thread so far not using a Sammy TWiz ROM?
Uninstall and re-install Google Search. Clear Google Talk data in App management. Reboot.
It'll work after that.
Hi...
I want to turn on multi Window automatically after power on or restart my phone. I'd search through this forum and even in Google but I couldn't find the answer.. I had tried "auto run manager" but it can't help.. Can anyone please tell me how to do that?
Thanks in advance..

When you restart the phone, some settings such 3g wifi on or off and this case multi window on or off is saved and is the same on restart.
If you meant the tab on the screen to bring up the multiwindows, the shortcut is press and bold the back button when on homescreen.
Otherwise not such how I can help

Thanks for help.. But I already know about that.. I'm just so lazy to long press "back" key to bring up multi Window bar and instead, the bar will appear automatically at system start.. So, though my problem is not important and can be even called "insane", I'll appreciate all help if possible
Sent from my GT-N7100 using xda app-developers app
Another reason other than laziness is " I just wanna replace back key long press to open my favorite app using simplistic framework"
I mean.. If multi Window automatically appear at system start, I can use back key long press to open my most used app

Hi there. Love the phone. Small problem though - I pull the pen in and out, press the side button on the pen, but nothing - no pie menu. Any ideas of what the issue may be ?
You need to hover the pen over the screen so you can see the pointer on the screen. Then press the button and the menu will show up.

I'll add "the button on the s-pen" I had the same problem and it took me a while to figure out the button is on the pen. :laugh::laugh:
I'll also add that in s pen settings there is the following options for when you remove the pen: turn it off when you remove pen, action memo, and air command. 'Air command being the one your referring to' It could possibly be turned off
