[Q] Clear Multi-view Settings? Full-screen default.

Searched and couldn't find an answer:
Received the OTA update today and had the multi-view working. I chose the full-screen button once and now I can't get split screen windows back. Technically, multi-view is working, but when I select an app, it only takes me to the full screen version. I checked the all application list to see if I could "clear default", but didn't see it anywhere.
Any help is appreciated. Thanks!
Hold the Back button to toggle the multi-window tab. Drag an app into the workspace to dock the app.
Wow, thanks. Didn't realize it was as easy as drag and dropping.

Thanks for that tip. I can't figure out how to add or remove apps to the multiview ribbon.
When the side window is out, at the bottom there is an edit button. Hit that and you can remove some. You won't be able to add anymore from what is in the list unless you are running a deodexed Rom with the unlimited multi window apps mod.

Double tap

On the jelly bean leak there is a motion called double tap and i was wondering how it works. Apparently in supposed to tap the top of my device? But when i do that it never works. Am i doing it wrong?

You must first enable the function under a menu in the setting called something like "Motion". When you have done that you choose which "motions" should enabled. All the double-tap does is take you to the top of a list. Whooaa!!

Yeah I know it takes me to the top of the page. It's enabled and everything but everytime I double tap the top of my device nothing happens.
According to the "Learn About Motion" in the motion setting page. It only works on contact lists, email list or email.

[Q] is there a Chrome Split Screen for our tablets ?

Chrome has a nifty free tool called Split Screen where you can have two URL's side by side on a single page.
https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/split-screen/eachfleknamlcepmplpdghagngjfjkin?
Very handy for language translation or to keep a series of parallel bookmarks for related items.
Is something like this available for our tablets ?
You can simply load two Chrome browsers in MultiWindow mode.

From the homescreen, swipe open the multi window bar, hit the Chrome icon and drag it over towards the middle of the screen and let go. As it is the first one you are opening it will fill the whole screen. Swipe the bar open again and then drag a second Chrome icon over the screen but keep your finger on it... as you swipe over the first half of the screen, one side of the screen will turn blue... if you want it open on that side just let go of the icon. If you keep dragging the icon over to the second half of the screen, the second part will then turn blue and you can drop it there and Chrome will open up a second time on that side. Hope this is clear enough

[Q] Access full screen app from hover

When in a full screen app and you press a notification that then opens up in a floating hover screen, is there any easy way to then switch to the full screen app of whats inside the hover screen?
An example is when you download an excel file in an email client and when it opens in hover you cant see everything clearly, is there a shortcut to go to make it full screen from that hover screen?
I don't think there is. You'd have to tap outside of the window and use the multitasking button to select the window you minimized.
Hi,
Go into app info (can be accessed via long press 1/on notification or 2/ into view or recent apps).
Press Blacklist and uncheck floating option.

split screen on pie beta

Simple question. How to activate split screen or window mode? Old way of dragging recent app or tapping split icon are gone. Ideas?
Looking at the open apps, tap the app icon on the top center of the app you want in split screen and you'll get the menu.
And how about the swapping the places of split windows?? Is it totally gone now?
