How do I Get that Cool Overlya Pop Up of Current Messages Again!

[PencilBoy99]

I somehow accidentally did something that allowed me to see a current message conversation in a smaller rectangle on top of my screen, but I could still see the rest of the screen and do other stuff. However, I can't figure out how I did this. How can I do this on purpose. It's really cool.

It comes out when you receive a measage. It's a popup notification.

Welcome to the forums. You can enable/disable these pop-ups notifications for any app. Try this. Go to settings - notifications - advanced, top right - select app and toggle the 'Previews in Pop-Ups' Option On/Off.

Do you mean like the image? If so, you swipe at an angle from the top right or top left corner. You'll see a blue outline that will show what the size of the window will be.
