With ICS, Samsung also provided the "Premium Suite" which include S-Memo. One of the great feature in S-Memo is that you can draw a shape and S-Memo will automatically convert that to actual shape with straight line. I.e. draw a box with wiggly lines, the app will straighten all the lines.
My question is: how do you MOVE shapes, text, etc. that is you already drawn in it?
I assume you mean the S Note app, not S Memo?
Anyway I don't think you can if you are using the "Productivity tools : Shape recognize" tool.
But you can use the "insert shapes" option and objects you create (lines, boxes, circles, arrows, etc.) can be moved after creating them by a long press.
anyone else get the white overlay/watermark while trying to draw on a picture? and if so how do i disable it?
This is because you aren't actually drawing on the picture. If you notice the animation flips the picture over. This is a rather gimmicky feature that resembles turning over a hard copy of a photo where you right on the back, like the occasion etc.
To actually draw on the image you would need a photo editing program, or a cheap way of doing so would be to open up your photo in fullscreen, take a screenshot of it by using the S Pen, hold the button and tap the screen then hold it until it flashes a screenshot, then draw on this screenshot.
After that you'll have to get some suggestions on apps to use to just straight up draw on the image.
Another way to do it is to open SNote and add the picture as a background image.
verizon removed the "samsung apps" app from the phone. however, you can search for the apk file for samsung's "photo editor" (which SHOULD have been included on the phone in the first place). it's not the best photo editing software, but it does allow very easy cuting and inserting (from clipboard) type of editing on photos. i downloaded it the other night and it works real well for what writing on pics, cutting pieces out of pics, or even cut and paste type of photo editing (like cutting my head out of a pic and putting it on Mr. T's body.....not that i did that or anything). no root needed to just load the apk. fyi....i don't believe our device is actually listed as a supported device, but i can verify that it works just fine.

I use sketchbook mobile. Theres also photoshop mobile I havent used. I think photoshop mobile is more the effects/filters side and sketch book has brushes, colors ,flow, opacity, and allows you to load pictures. You can draw directly on the picture or make layers and export as a. Jpeg .png or .psd.

Photoshop Touch is annoying (mostly because it's hard to find anything). In order to save something, you have to save it as a project then save the project as an image.

If it was any variant besides verizon, he was likely using the samsung photo editor, which, again, SHOULD have been on our phone.

So I noticed on my note 3 that S-Notes is way better than it was on the Galaxy note 10.1 and Galaxy Note II. There are more useful templates and more useful features (mainly, syncing with more services like dropbox and evernote).
As people get more experience, can anyone tell me which service they prefer? I'm split because I prefer LectureNotes for its power and the Cornell Note-taking template. But the S-note app is better integrated into touchwiz and has more powerful options now with automatic evernote and dropbox syncing.
For me i think it will be down to the S-note's ability to flawlessly import pdf's and annotate it

For that purpose I think EzPdf is way better than S-Note, at least if you want to make a workflow of annotated pdf's.

what do you mean when you say annotate, because honestly lecturenotes does it flawlessly. you can import and then write on it, type on it, draw on it, insert pictures on it, basically everything you can do on a normal blank paper.

i've never used the widget before, but i'm going to fix that right now and fill you in.
ok:
i'm just assuming here but still; i'm gonna assume that S-note has a widget where if placed on a homescreen you can simply type in without opening the app itself. lecturenotes from the few tests i just made can't do that. you can either have a "widget" (really an app icon) that can open to a particular page that you specify or you can have one that just opens lecturenotes, i see nothing that would allow you to edit without opening the app itself. definitely not something worth dedicating a homescreen to....

You can use the pen to highlight or underline, but no sticky notes. You can however create a text box and write in any notes, but that's as close as you can get.

How do you highlight?

I got frustrated with S Note and ditched it. I'm using Lecture notes now and really like it. The main thing that killed S Note for me was the way the notes were organized. Felt very cumbersome and non-intuitive. I wish they had left the UI for browsing folders and notebooks the same. Or maybe I just had too much trouble transferring my old notes into it.
Anyways I was wondering if anyone knew how to quickly expend a single page in lecture notes. I know I can go into the settings and change it that way, but I'd like to be able to do it on the fly and on a page by page basis instead of a global modification of the page length.

I'd imagine you just select the marker tip with whatever color, then change the opacity between 10% and 40%. Whatever you're comfortable with. At least that's how I had done it in the old 10.1 model.

to expend a page? you wanna know how to quickly use up a page? don't understand what you're asking but i'll cover a few bases.
to quickly add a page click the "+" on the top right or if you're using a keyboard just press the down arrow.
to delete a page you click onto the page and open menu and delete it from there. deleting isn't as simple as adding unfortunately..
@ChrisNee1988: There is no built-in highlighter, as tastes concerning highlighters differ widely. As described by gina$zanboti, you can make one of the custom pencils to act as a highlighter, choose your favorite color and width, an intermediate alpha, and enable `draws behind other colors´. To quickly change to the highlighter, you can show the pencil toolbox (select `Show pencil toolbox´ in the `pencil´ menu, can be moved around by click-and-hold and setup in the app's tools settings; a single click on a pencil sets the pencil and a double-click on a custom pencil brings up the custom pencil settings) or assign it to your stylus button (in case your stylus has a button).
@gina$zanboti: I am not entirely sure whether I understand correctly. LectureNotes' pages have a fixed size.
Does LectureNotes have handwriting to text conversion? I have been using MyScript Notes Mobile which does do this but it begins to get laggy after 2-3 pages in terms of the screen delay from writing to on screen. When I used LN, it's near instant which is awesome and I really like it overall but converting to text is really big as I export QC scripts a lot.
My problem with snote is that importing removes searchable test which is a big no-no for me. Otherwise I'd probably use it. I am using it for free hand notes and like it for that.
@TheBigSaxon: There is no handwriting recognition in LectureNotes, but there are several soft keyboards that provide this functionality (meaning that you write with stylus and the keyboard app does as if you typed it).
tstsubi the
So, if your main storage for notes is Evernote, what is recommended as the front end for capture of notes, including handwriting recognition. Don't want to get locked into s note or lecture notes for the actual storage - just looking for advice on the best way to recognise handwriting, capture info etc, and sync seemlessly into Evernote.
any thoughts?
Is there any way in S Note to do a vertical page to imitate a sheet of paper like lecture notes can?

Yes, there is a portrait template of ruled paper. Or you can use the default landscape ruled paper template, and then just rotate the tablet into portrait mode and it should rotate the page as well.

Here is my 2 cents in using snotes and others working with pdfs
Things I like about snote:
Keeps the use of pressure sensitivity. This is something very special about our spens and I like the feel. I want to keep it when I'm writing.
This might sound stupid but this makes the writing feel the most realistic and not so machine like.
Once I'm in the editing mode I stay in the editing mode. Unlike ezpdf and lecturenotes where I have to hit the pen to start writing again and hand/back to scroll. I found this really annoying. For people annotating it may not be an issue but if you're actually taking notes and such it's a pain.
All the other special tricks with spen work in snotes well because it was made for it.
Negatives:
It has to import pdfs...This was the worst. It can't just open it as a pdf and start editing. Probably creating image type files. Not sure how lecturenotes imports pdfs because it's not available for the trial version. I imported a 200+ page pdf and it took longer than expected but now that
I have an expected time frame I may be able to deal with it.
Since it's not keeping the integrity of the pdf it can screw up some things while importing.
I'm a math guy and it screwed up a few notations here and there.
Scrolling...call me lazy but continuous scrolling is beautiful. Although I didn't like the fact that you can't be in between pages in ezpdf. While scrolling and you let go the page will automatically place itself so you see either the previous page or next page on the screen (depending on how far you let the split go past the screen).
Snote's scrolling is swipe or hit arrow right at bottom of screen. Swipe right is too slow. Animations are nice but unnecessary when turning the page. I usually like keeping the writing area in the middle of the screen. Also a reason why I want to be able to put the bottom of the page in the middle. But my hand being in the middle i think its annoying to go down to hit the right arrow. Just me being an annoying *****.
Hope this helps someone out there. =)
Edit: realized I was missing the add on to import pdfs for lecturenotes.
With short use it has a lot that I wanted. Now I dont know what I should use...
Edit 2 played with settings and im purchasing it now
@aznxkpx88: There is no need to alternate between `pencil´ and `hand´ mode in LectureNotes: You can scroll/zoom outside the `hand´ mode if you enable `allow two fingers scrolling/zooming´ in the app's input settings. Since you seem to use an S-pen (in which case you should enable `use stylus (hardware detection)´), you can also enable `allow one finger scrolling´ and scroll with one finger.
The constrain on the maximal number of pages per notebook in the trial version applies also to PDF imports.
Hey guys
I'm looking for a basic image editor that can do at the very least the same things like mspaint can for images (crop/fill/insert text) etc. A huge plus would be being able to use the pen, more functionality is also a plus. Just wanted to use it for basic work stuff like editing/annotating screenshots etc.
Any ideas?

Doesn't it already have a utility in the air-command menu to allow you to take a screenshot and draw all over it?
Yep, mine sure does. Maybe it's not a powerhouse app, but it seems to have a lot of the same tools in MSpaint (far as I can tell anyway, after they changed to the ribbon interface, which I am no fan of)

'ArtRage' from Galaxy Note 4
Have you tried the "ArtRage for Android" app ??
This is still NOT available in the Google Play Store, but can be obtained from the Samsung GALAXY Apps Store.
It is pretty much similar to the "Autodesk SketchBook" & "Clover Paint" (this needs the additonal in-app purchase of Extension for Tablet (EfT) for full use with the S-Pen.
ADMIN NOTE: APK has been deleted. Do not re-upload.
coming from the Note I used the S-pen to crop my screenshots which I used almost every day. The cropping software would always form a perfect box around the image you wanted to isolate. With the LG we get the very cool dedicated button for screen shots. How do you crop the picture so that the lines are perfectly straight around the borders and not the free hand type lines?

The stock Google Photos app allows for cropping with straight lines. I open the photo on Gallery, hit the pencil icon and get asked which app I want to use to edit it.
I've also used Snapseed and that has the same cropping capabilities.
This bothered me too. I save the whole screen shot to my gallery and then go into the gallery pic, tap the screen, tap the 3 dots on the top right and then tap crop. The Samsung way is definitely better and I hope LG implements that method.
With V10, you can use Capture+. You can select the portion you want to capture before saving or sharing it.
yes but when using Capture±
how do you crop it there with straight lines? when I click on crop button it only allows you to draw around the screen shot with curved lines. having to save it to a second app is fine for once but not ideal if you use screen shots a lot like I do. t
speaking about screenshots, does anyone else get a line at the very top of the screen, only in screenshots? I'm rooted w/xposed, gravity box/g4 tweaksbox and xstana. is this a phone issue, or something I've done? I seem to remember the change log for the 5.1.1 patch included something to do with this
