This seems to be an option on the S5 but I can't find it on the N4. I searched the net and found it for S5, but how do you make groups or add an app that's Not in the edit options when you open multiwindow panel?

To make a group, enable the two screens that you want then long press back to get the multiscreen tray then scroll to the bottom, there should be an option to save groupings.

As for adding an app not available in the edit section, you can modify the apk to allow for multi window access,though I don't know the specifics

OK...So apps have to support multiwindow. If they do they show up in the edit screen...if they don't then notta. MS Office doesn't support multiwindow function. That's cheesy. Back to Office Suite which does support multiwindow along with Business Cal Pro...so should be able to swap info between the two.

OK...wish some of these other apps supported this...like my fantasy leagues....Hmmm...Dolphin supports it. I think I can work with this...

I tried the multiwindow apps in the play store but I need to root to do that. Not game with that right now.
