It's a very useful way of capturing information that's on the display, using a feature called smart select. If you've been a Note user in the past, some of this might sound familiar.
Smart select is an edge panel, you can swipe into it from the edge screen.
- Head into settings > display > edge screen > edge panels. Through this menu you can enable firstly edge screen itself, but also the smart select edge panel.
- Head to the page you want to capture from.
- Open the edge panel with a swipe until you get to smart select.
- Choose the shape or type of selection you want to make - rectangle, circle, pin to screen or best of all, create a gif.
- You'll return to the capture page with a frame for making that selection. Resize or reposition the frame and press done. If creating a gif, hit record, then stop when you're done.
- You'll then be shown what you've been captured, with the option to draw, share, save and in the case of text, extract that text, so you can paste it elsewhere.
- If pinning a selection, this will then have the captured selection hover over everything until you close it down. It's really useful for information you want refer to, like an address or reference number.
