Android Central Question

Hello!

I've noticed that even when I change the Edge Panel Handle to display on the left (I'm a lefty), the "default" handle for edge panels still shows on the right. It doesn't actually work, but the white bar is still there. It stays even when I disable edge panels all together. It's definitely not a huge deal, but it is visually distracting.

Any help would be appreciated! Thanks!

I won't use the panels because of that stupid white bar. never had that on other notes. that alone diminished usefulness since I had to turn them off so not to see an ugly line on my gorgeous screen. got rid of the home button and gave us a line. what???

If you want the Edge Panel but don't want the visible bar, you can always set the Transparency of that bar to the maximum High so the bar is no longer visible.

Then all you have to do is swipe where the bar should be at and the Edge Panel slides out.

And to the OP, I have no issues setting my Edge Panel to the left edge of the screen.

thank you for this! you are my hero today. I'll dig that up and fix it and then put the apps I want there. appreciate you taking the time to help.
 
I did have to set the size of the panel handle larger, but the bar no longer shows up because transparency is all the way up.
