Multi-Window support for Galaxy Note tablets

[cris]

After using Pleco for years on ipod and iphone, just bought the Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 tab, which allows two apps to be used in windows right next to each other, would be a great way to read in one app and look up stuff in Pleco in the other window.

Of course, I could always copy&paste into Pleco, but having the apps side by side would make for more natural reading & browsing. Plus it would allow to use the dictionary easier with apps that do not allow for copying (e.g. Amazon Kindle, where I am off to next to ask for multi-window support).

Not sure how many people do use the combination of Note & Pleco, so if there are others please let us know.

Cheers

In general we try to avoid supporting manufacturer-specific APIs when possible - it's not good for the health of Android as a platform to have developers doing a lot of stuff that only works on Samsung devices - so we're hoping Google comes up with their own version of this in Android 5.0. We might consider supporting Samsung's system if Google fails to act, though.
