switch split screens.
• Adjust the split screen ratio: Drag or between the two split screens to adjust the
relative size of each split screen.

a split screen, and drag it to the left or right (in portrait mode) or downwards (in landscape

Drag and Drop Between Apps with Multi-Window
Use the Multi-Window feature to easily drag and drop images, text, and documents between
apps.
• Drag and drop an image: When taking notes with Notepad, open Files, select the photo
you want to add, and drag it into the Notepad editor.
