[Q] Using Air view as cursor? - Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello everyone, I was wondering if there is any way to use air view to act as a cursor? I believe on the Galaxy Note when you hover the s pen over the screen a little circle follows the pen around and acts like a mouse cursor. I'd like that functionality but with my finger.
If this was possible we could activate hover menus on websites!

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
try dolphin browser or ultimate browser project. I use both and I can use air view to hover over menus and stuff fine.

does the kin 2 got REAL multi touch? read inside...

hey guys , one question does the kin two got multi touch ? i mean can you press two fingers at one time and both of them register correctly?!
thanks
Depends on what you mean by multi-touch. In certain Applications you can do a multi-touch to do a multi delete by pressing the "X" that pops up..and in the browser you can pinch to zoom in/out
Can Kin Two recognize coordinates of 2 fingers?
Real dulatouch...
Is there another way to do pinch zoom in/out?
Also, you can do this in the Camera App as well (both when taking a picture and viewing it later).
I assume that for the Kin to understand the pinch gesture, it has to recognize two fingers and their coordinates so that it can tell whether they are moving closer together or further apart.
One other example of multi-finger gestures on the Kin is that to configure your home screen apps or your favorites in the browser app, you do a two-finger tap to get into the arrange/delete mode and then two finger tap again when you are done moving & removing items.

The hardware can handle multiple touchscreen input at the same time. The software is limited though, in how it interprets that input. You can "two finger tap" the home page to rearrange the icons, pinch-zoom on pictures, webpages, etc.
I'm not saying it would ever happen, but IF the device were to have a fully multi-touch aware OS, like Android and its Apps, then it could handle the input properly.

[Q] trackpad

After the recent update the trackpad has reverted to its original setting, I must admit I preferred the trackpad mirroring finger use on the screen moving your fingers upwards to push the screen upwards, and swiping down to move the screen down has on the screen. Getting rid of the flakey pinch to zoom, and the option to use mouse pointer instead of gesture pointer is welcome. Keyboard lag greatly reduced.
I am pretty sure the gestures have been reverted back to save any backlash from apple, My Macbook pro pushes the screen up using upward motion on the trackpad, also the physical design of the keyboard dock from above closely mirrors the MBP.
Is there an option to use the trackpad in either direction as I cannot see one in settings?

I'm not sure if it affects the scrolling direction, but there is an option under Keyboard & Input to change the mouse pointer. I'd play with that.
Yes done that and changed mouse pointer back to arrow instead of circle. There is no option for track pad screen movement.
appologies your right, just have to live with the circle curser in gesture mode

[Q] Touchscreen Scrolling Settings - Vivo Tab Smart

I have a Vivo Tab Smart. Initially, I had to two-finger scroll in programs. This allowed me to draw in a PDF annotating program and to highlight cells in Office 2007. After doing a pinch-to-zoom in the program, one finger scrolling becomes enabled and now any vertical swiping in these programs scrolls instead of drawing or highlighting. Does anybody know how to fix this?

[Q] REQ Pen window without the pen

Something cool would be to open the pen window chooser without the s-pen pulled out. Maybe a long press of the menu button would open the application selector. I know the multi-window has this in a way, but the quick minimizing and access of the pen window is a nice feature

[Q] Pen Window Shortcut?

Has anyone figured out a way to make a shortcut to the pen window function? This is the feature where you take out the s-pen, click pen window, draw a rectangle, then pick one of the preselected apps. I don't find myself using the s-pen much at all, but having a shortcut to that feature would be AMAZING. It would simply be a matter of clicking the icon shortcut (or assigning a gesture to it with Nova), drawing a rectangle with your finger, then selecting an app.
I'm using Nova launcher and can't seem to find a shortcut for it in there. Any help would be much appreciated!
TIA!
Edit: NM, finally found an app for this in the play store. $1.49 well worth it IMO. Same dude who made the pen window manager to add more apps to pen window.
