Gesture for Split Screen after Update - Huawei P20 Lite Questions & Answers

Hey all,
I got the November update today. The thing is I cannot figure out shortcut for split screen mode. Previously I would just hold the recent apps button to get directly to split screen.
Do anyone have faced this issue?
Thanks in advance.

Hey there
There's another simple way to do it, simply drag an app of the recent apps to the "drag here to enter split-screen mode"
Cheers,
AS

Yes, but a gesture would have been easier.

[Q] How to add a toggle for Recent App?

Hi, I would like to know how I can toggle Recent App of ICS. It can be shown by long clicking on the home button. The one that has preview because I don't like to be pressing so much my home button as I am noticing improper responses from it. Is there a way to put this as an icon or widget on the homescreen? Thx
Anyone? Tried apps like button savior, etc. But it shows their built-in recent apps instead of the firmware's or samsung's.
BUMP
I know this post is old, but Im trying to figure a way too without using an app or service BUMP\
I found what I was looking for in app LMT using the "invisible swipe gestures" set to top center of screen so that swiping top left is notifications, top right is quick settings, and top center opens recents. This is for anyone who might be searching and happen to land on this dead thread. Any other particular method of shortcut will work if you set it to Activities>SystemUI>Overview.recents is the path to this.
sent from the tapatalk app on my S3 running whatever rom Im running this week
I use GMD Gestures, because my sensitive buttons aren't working. Before, I used CM official inbuilt option that you can change the option sensitive (or back) button for recent Apps. Can really recommend that. Greetings.

Touchwiz home buttons - S3 specific?

Hey guys
I want to put a shortcut in the four home button slots and so I've deleted the "internet" icon from there but now I have no idea how to get Dolphin shortcut to it. I've tried some answers through google for other phones but none that I have found seem to work, any ideas please?
First drag shortcut to desktop and then to the bottom bar.

Oh! Just worked, thank you! My screen didn't have any spare desktop (didn't know this was needed). Sorry for being so stupid
Has anyone noticed that this no longer works after recent OTA updates.
For some reason Samsung has locked the bottom bar and you can't change it any more. Well done Sammy!!
Does anyone know of any back doors or utilities that can be used to get around this issue?

Floating Dock similar to Huawei/IPhone

Hi all,
Any ideas where I can find a floating dock for Nokia 8? My primary purpose is to be able to avoid using the button on the side to turn the screen off/lock the device. There are several available on the Play Store however they do not offer the ability to turn the screen off individually. I have to enter the pin when I wake up the device?
Alternatively, any gesture app would work too...I coud doube tap anywhere on the homescreen to turn the screen off!
Thanks!

You can use Microsoft Launcher and set home button as turn off screen.
If you don't mind widgets, Screen Lock by Prahallad works. No problem with fingerprint/PIN (have to enable support in settings). Doesn't fully lock immediately; screen blanks then in few seconds device enters actual locked state.

yeah well, then again, its a whole launcher....I like my pixel launcher as is....just need a small app for the dock...not looking to install an entire launcher for that purpose. But thanks man!
P.s. I did install it and check it out....however, it locks the device rather than turns the screen off....so back to square one

Disable screen pinning completely without root

Hi! I've been using Pocophone for about two weeks now, so far I like the phone for the performance and simplistic UI.
But I've been experiencing some problem, especially with the Screen Pinned
Sometimes when I'm using the phone, I accidentally get into Screen Pinned mode and because I'm using gesture mode for navigation I can't press home button / back button. I just can't get out of the Screen Pinned. The only way to get out of it is to restart the phone, which is kinda annoying.
Is there any way to get out of Screen Pinned while in gesture mode? I tried to use the shortcuts to kill the app, but it still doesn't work.
Or is there even a way to disable the Screen Pinned?
Can someone please help?

This problem is available on miui devices. Im using a redmi note 7 and this is the most annoying bug in the os that the first app in the recent apps have the screen pinning button and every time i accidentally press it i have to reboot my phone to exit the app properly and make the phone system function again. If anyone knows a workaround, please help.
If you still wondering, try downloading setedit from play store, and change the value of "lock_to_app_enabled" to 0

Locking apps?

Okay so when I hit the recent apps button and all of my active apps pop up and I hit the icon like I'm going to enter split screen view at the bottom there is an option to lock the app? I figured that meant you couldn't close out of it or anything but you still can close out of it. Can't find anything about it anywhere on the internet someone could please explain that would he awesome!
